BALLET
DUE TO POPULAR DEMAND - A NEW BEGINNER BALLET CLASS NOW OFFERED TUESDAY/THURSDAY!
Ballet is a classical art form that teaches students the beauty of dance and movement. Students develop the balance, poise, flexibility, strength and discipline required not just for dance, but for everyday healthy living. Students studying other dance styles are encouraged to take ballet in conjunction with their chosen dance discipline to help develop a strong overall technique. All ballet classes are accompanied by professional pianists from the RWB School music staff.
JAZZ
Jazz dancing was developed in the 1920s and has since evolved into today’s energetic, expressive and rhythmical style. This powerful, dynamic class improves coordination, flexibility
and muscle control as well as overall fitness. Students in this fast-paced, challenging and fun environment learn technique as well as dance combinations set to classical jazz and current music.
LYRICAL JAZZ
Lyrical Jazz is a style of jazz that explores self-expression using ballet, jazz and modern technique. Danced to modern music, this class will focus on smooth moving techniques that emphasize the lyrics.
MODERN
Modern dance is a structured discipline focusing on principles of tension and relaxation, fall and recovery, suspension, contraction and release. Dancers will explore a wide range of
movement, increase their fl exibility and acquire keen body awareness. These classes will be accompanied by a percussionist from the RWB School music staff.
TAP
Tap dancing is one of the most popular and stylish dance forms of all time. It’s a fun way to exercise and terrific for developing coordination, rhythm and concentration. From its beginning in the early 1900s, tap dance has evolved from a basic form of communication to the tap technique we know today. Today’s tap vocabulary has developed from vaudeville, soft shoe, clopping and jazz tap style. Tap dance develops coordination, motor skills, rhythm, precision and concentration skills.
