COVID-19 Exposure Policy

CREATIVE MOVEMENT (Ages 2.5-3) This class allows new dancers to explore movement and rhythm through basic dance steps, ballet and tap. Dancers will have fun using manipulatives, music and rhymes to help them practice dance fundamentals in an exciting and positive environment. Ballet shoes, Black Annie Tyette tap shoes, leotard and tights are required. This is a 45 minute class.

PREK BALLET/TAP (Ages 3-5) A gentle introduction to ballet and tap technique in a fun and energetic classroom environment. With classic youth friendly songs and pre-dance movement, this class is dedicated to helping your child fall in love with dance! Ballet shoes, black Annie Tyette tap shoes, leotards and tights are required.

BALLET Ballet barre, floor work and technique. Beginners will learn classical ballet fundamentals from the very beginning basics, and gain agility, flexibility, balance and body awareness. Advanced dancers will find their class tailored to the individual dancer's needs by fine-tuning technique, giving advanced turn and jump combinations, and recommending personal goals. Ballet shoes required.

POINTE Ballet technique en pointe. Taught at Beg-Int level

ELEMENTARY COMBO (Grades K-3) In a combination of ballet, tap, and jazz, elementary-aged children will learn and then build on the basics in each style. Each class is a combination of barre work, across the floor, center floor combinations and technique. Suggested designations indicate age of dancer: A=Grades K-1 B=Grades 2-3. Pink Ballet shoes, Black Annie Tyette Tap Shoes, and Tan Jazz Shoes are required.

CONTEMPORARY Contemporary Dance is a feel-good, self-expression based movement. Dancers should have a basic knowledge of ballet technique and desire a quicker paced, choreography based class. Full warm up with technique training exercises, across the floor and a focus on the weekly combos.

HIP-HOP Have a fabulous time dancing to fun, age-appropriate hip hop music! Young dancers will stretch, learn weekly high energy, youth friendly combinations, and practice hip-hop isolations in a positive, nurturing environment!

JAZZ Classic jazz technique and combinations with tricks, leaps, and turns. Combinations focus on style, stage presence, and execution and continuously strengthen and sharpen movements. Soft-soled tan jazz shoes required.

TAP Stylized rhythmic tap with technique practice and weekly combinations. Black Oxford Tap shoes required.

TWEEN CLASSES (for dancers in grades 5-8) Perfect for the beginner tween-aged dance student. Dancefx offers classes focused on ballet, jazz, tap, contemporary, and hip hop.

FX1, FX2 and FX3 CLASSES (for dancers ages 12 and up) Dancefx has a special pre-professional program for Middle School and High School students- The FX1/2/3 Program. Open to those with previous dance experience, this program offers specialized training in a variety of genres - ballet, tap, jazz, contemporary, hip-hop, and Pointe. In general, FX3 classes are great for intermediate level dancers, and FX1 and FX2 classes are for more advanced training.
