Dance with virtuosity and versatility.

The Dance program aims to train versatile dancers.  We offer dance technique from beginning to professional level of difficulty (depending on the dance form).  We offer ballet, jazz-contemporary dance, modern dance, tap, hip-hop, world dance, yoga, martial arts and Pilates.




MODERN

Rigorous fundamental technical practice underscores the study of cutting-edge modern dance (beginner - professional). Students develop body awareness, kinesthetic knowledge, and increased physical presence while engaging in intellectual, social, emotional, and personal exploration.





JAZZ AND OTHER CONTEMPORARY DANCE FORMS

Contemporary-Lyrical-Jazz-Hip Hop dance courses (beginner - professional) train dancers in a wide range of styles and prepare them for professional work in media, concert, and commercial settings. World-famed teachers offer demanding technical and performance-based studio experiences leading to audition and public performance.


Faculty include Denise Leitner, Jason Myhre, Paige Porter, and Leslie Scott.

Guest faculty have included Sonya Tayeh, Tyce Diorio, Ryan Heffington, Mike Esperanza, and Justin Giles.

 


BALLET

Training in classical ballet (beginner - pre-professional and pointe) supports the overall development of the dancer as a performing artist.  The student-centered approach toward ballet technique addresses alignment, core strength and stability, flexibility, musicality, and performance qualities.

 

Faculty include Scott Heinzerling, Tekla Kostek, and Caprice Walker.
