Acro
Acro is the combination of dance technique and acrobatics which forms its own graceful dance discipline. Movement flows into flexible bends and stretches. The strength of balances and aerial challenges gives Acro its breath-taking appearance.

 

 

B-Boy / Break
B-boying and B-girling, also known as breakdancing, is a unique form of urban dance that emerged in the early 70's. Here's your chance to learn to do free-style moves, stalls, freezes, power moves and much more from Yvon Soglo, A.K.A. Bboy Crazy Smooth. Yvon is one of Canada's top street dancers whose passion and respect for this art form make his classes unforgettable.

 

 

Classical Ballet
Based on the Royal Academy of Dance syllabus, children learn age-appropriate classical dance techniques and exercises. The Royal Academy of Dance is the world's largest examining and teacher organization for classical ballet. The standards are very high and certificates issued by the academy are acknowledged across the world. Our faculty is fully trained in R.A.D. Offered both competitively and recreationally.

 



Hip Hop
Hip Hop is the dance industry's new fit-factor. The dynamics of Hip Hop dancing are as physically demanding as any sport, requiring strength, flexibility, endurance, and control. Unlike most sports, however, Hip Hop breeds a philosophy of originality and positive character-building. Students are encouraged to try out different characters or emotions, and to express them in their dance with passion and energy.

 



Jazz
Using upbeat and in-style music, this class offers students the training to learn and improve their turning and jumping abilities while refining style and technique.

Our jazz classes are based on Brian Foley A.D.A.P.T. (Associated Dance Arts for Professional Teachers) and C.D.T.A. (Canadian Dance Teachers Association) programs, which we believe provide the necessary tools to developing a well-rounded dancer.

These programs produce well-trained dancers who excel in technique and performance, showing excellent results in both exams and competitions. As certified dance syllabi they offer yearly examinations to students. Offered both competitively and recreationally.

 






Lyrical
Using choreography and lyrical techniques the students learn how to express themselves and show emotion while dancing and performing. Searching for expression from within, students learn to portray a story or a feeling through body movement.

 

 

Strength Training and Flexibility Workshops
Shane Miller, a Certified Medical Exercise Specialist and Certified Personal Trainer will be holding strength and conditioning clinics where he will work with students to assess areas of potential weakness, and devise movement and strengthening strategies to repair and rebuild injured tissues and optimize functionality of muscles involved in high stress activities.

 

 

Tap
Technical basics with emphasis on rhythm and coordination. Our jazz classes are based on Brian Foley (Associated Dance Arts for Professional Teachers) and C.D.T.A. (Canadian Dance Teachers Association) programs which we believe allow the dancer to progress without limiting them to one tap style.

These programs produce well-trained dancers who excel in technique and performance, showing excellent results in both exams and competitions. As certified dance syllabi they offer yearly examinations to students. Offered both competitively and recreationally.
