Seniors - Yr7+

In our Senior Level we have Tap, Lyrical, Jazz, Hip Hop & Contemporary.

Contemporary blends several types of dance into its own unique style. It includes elements of ballet, jazz, modern, and even hip hop. These classes are for dancers who like creative challenges. Exercises focus on increasing flexibility and strength, total body connectivity, spatial awareness and creative problem solving through movement. 

Tap is as much a form of percussion as it is a dance genre. Tap focuses on rhythms and patterns in footwork through proper technique, as well as personal style and producing clear sounds. Classes include a variety of tap styles from Broadway to Rhythm tap. This class will provide students with an understanding of tap and hopefully show them the infectious joy tap can bring. 

Jazz is a high energy class where you can have lots of fun learning a variety of jazz dance styles. In this class we dance to a wide range of music including Pop, Broadway and Old School tracks.  Although with a traditional jazz foundation, the styles have various influences including funk and theatre.  Expect a fresh style and a variety between smooth routines to sharp, hard-hitting choreography. Students learn techniques such as how to kick, turn and jump, plus find their own groove! 

Hip Hop begins with an easy-to-follow series of warmup moves, followed by stretching and working on a fun routine weekly set to popular music. The class also uses simple progressions and break down of various steps. This gives students the chance to learn great dance moves, develop a funky dance style and boost confidence.

Lyrical is a fusion of classical ballet and modern expression. Using a combination of ballet and jazz movements, students will increase their balance and coordination whilst developing the ability to move through movement and music at a slower pace. Routines are often themed to help with the expression through the dance and song.
