ADULT DANCE CLASSES

WE’VE LEARNED THE VALUE OF EXPLORING MOVEMENT FROM A VARIETY OF SOURCES. APPROACHING MOVEMENT FROM A NEW PERSPECTIVE INFORMS ONE’S BODY IN EXCITING AND UNEXPECTED WAYS.

WE OFFER A SELECTION OF MOVEMENT FORMS THAT WE BELIVE COMPLIMENT ONE ANOTHER WHEN PRACTICED SIMULTANEOUSLY.

 

BALLET

Our approach to ballet is all inclusive and body positive. We see ballet as a wonderful form of self expression that can give a person the experience of freedom, lightness and joy through movement. The stigma of ballet as a strict, disciplinarian, and elitist dance form is an idea we do not adhere to. We honor the technical rigor of ballet and apply it as a tool to experience the amazing possibilities of our bodies as vessels for self expression.

ABSOLUTE BEGINNER BALLET

A class designed for students with no previous ballet experience wanting to learn the foundational movements and principles that make up a ballet class! All are welcome regardless of age, body type, gender identity, race or dis/ability. Instructors will be more than happy to offer comprehensive explanations and demonstrations of steps & combinations.

BEGINNER BALLET

A simple ballet class for people with some or limited experience with ballet. Class will begin at the barre and move on to an abridged center. Familiarity with ballet terminology and the basic structure of a ballet class is encouraged, but so are questions!

Beginner/Intermediate BALLET

A ballet class bridging between beginner and intermediate levels. Familiarity with ballet terminology and the basic structure of a ballet class is necessary. Students should expect to move through all elements of barre and center at a steady pace.

INTERMEDIATE BALLET

An evenly-paced ballet for those with prior ballet experience. Understanding of ballet terminology and class structure is required.

INTERMEDIATE/Advanced BALLET

Ballet Slippers, Tights, and Leotards not required for class. Please wear whatever you feel comfortable in!

 

CONTEMPORARY / MODERN

Our approach to contemporary dance is nothing if not multi-faced. The lineage we most identify with is European contemporary dance, which contains an enormous breadth of ideologies and approaches. We look at contemporary dance from diverse approaches to technique, improvisation, movement research, and dance theater. Fundamental to our philosophy is that all bodies can dance. All that is required is the spirit of exploration.
