Special Power Program

Ballet is the basis of all dance forms and the studio has encouraged all of our students to take ballet classes. Some students have only taken the minimum, which met the requirement for doing jazz and lyrical choreography. Jazz and lyrical are highly technical and we know that ballet classes benefit all dance disciplines.

Students can still register for individual disciplines such as ballet only, tap only, hip hop only, musical theatre only or combinations. However, students wishing to do competitive jazz and lyrical choreographies MUST attend ballet class and the stretch and technique class appropriate for there level.
