2023-2024 Dance Classes
Jazz and Hip-Hop Classes (Ages 4 to Adult)
Our fun and energetic Jazz and Hip-Hop classes have something for everyone, from ages 4 through adult. For the younger students, we offer jazz/hip-hop classes, which combine the foundation of jazz technique with current hip-hop styles, using age-appropriate music and movement. For older students and adults, we offer a pure hip-hop class for those who wish to learn the most up-to-date hip-hop moves, and we also offer an adults-only jazz class for adults of all ages and ability levels. In addition, we offer three levels of jazz classes as part of our dance performance teams, for students who enjoy performing and wish to gain additional performance experience in jazz dance.
For all our jazz/hip-hop classes, we take great care that all music used – usually top hits getting airtime on the radio in the genres of hip-hop, rap, and pop – is family-friendly and edited for content, and that all dance moves are appropriate for a recital audience of all ages.
Our 2023-2024 dance year is divided into two sessions: Session 1 runs September 4, 2023 through January 20, 2024, and Session 2 runs February 5, 2024 through June 8, 2024.
