BALLET Classical ballet provides a great grounding for all other dance styles. Ballet is the ultimate when it comes to the control of your body. It is easy to learn at every age and will help improve pretty much every aspect of your body’s fitness. Posture, muscle tone, flexibility, core strength, artistic expression and musicality. Each class will start at the barre’ and then move into the centre. One of the most popular dance styles, ballet is best known for the “pointe” technique where dancers use shoes that are especially created for dancing on their toes. However, this is only one facet of ballet – one that requires a whole lot of training before the dancer masters this move. |

CONTEMPORARY / LYRICAL
Contemporary is an expressive dance form with a free, artistic and creative feel. Contemporary draws a lot of its technique from ballet but unlike ballet, contemporary often focuses on floor work and dancers will usually perform with bare feet. Principles of contemporary dance include centering, alignment, gravity, contraction, release and suspension.
Lyrical dancing uses emotions and expression through dance and combines the skills and disciplines of ballet and jazz
