Test 1-2 Ballet/Jazz 

Picture
Our Test 1-2 levels of Ballet/Jazz are wonderful classes for those budding ballet dancers. Both fun and creative encouraging children to express themselves through dance, music, imagination and mime. This is the first step into dance with students working independently from their parents and following instructions and directions from their dance professional. Props such as wands, ribbons and scarfs are used to aid learning along with petals and feathers for fine motor skill development. These classes use the foundation of Classical Ballet and jazz technique to develop coordination of gross motor skills, balance and control. Learning ballet terminology and skills such as partner dancing, turn taking and following the leader assists with life outside the studio doors. All classes are fun and a very positive experience for young dancers. A great way to learn the foundations of Dance to help our dancers tip toe up through the levels.

Test 3 Ballet

Picture
Test 3/Bronze Ballet is a great class to learn a variety of classical ballet poses, techniques and footwork. These levels of Ballet teach children discipline, persistence, dedication, rhythm and coordination in a fun, friendly and supportive environment. Our students learn the basics to succeed in older classes, meet new friends and learn vital socialisation skills. 

Bronze/Silver/Gold Ballet

Picture
​Ballet is the foundation of all genres providing core stability, correct weight placement, poise, technique and control. Students studying at this level will have had previous knowledge and experience of Ballet and will be focusing on the more complex of steps, progressing their technique to eventually lead onto Pointe and advanced Ballet graded training. 

Adult Ballet

Picture
​Ballet encompasses a mixture of technique, co-ordination & rhythm. It is a fantastic way to get in shape, improve your flexibility, core strength & posture. Our adult class caters for first timers to intermediate dancers and our members have a wide range of interests, backgrounds and goals. In each Ballet class we do technical barre work & strengthening exercises, adage work to improve balance & allegro to get you jumping & working up a sweat.
​So if you want to have some fun, get a great workout & feel graceful all at the same time, give Adult Ballet a go.
It's never too late to release your inner Ballet dancer!

Tap

​
​Tap dance teaches rhythm, movement, control and sound beating out movements using their feet to strike the floor. Following the ISTD syllabi, students will learn the theatrical art form with a fresh modern twist. They will be introduced to different tapping techniques, rhythm, tempo and style.
A great way to have a conversation with the feet!

​Contemporary

Picture
Contemporary shares similar characteristics with Ballet and modern dance. It combines lyrical soft flowing movements with expressive dance combinations. The release based technique develops strength and precision with floor based work, teaching rolling, jumping and safe landing to develop a strong technical dancer. ​

Hip Hop

Picture
Hip Hop classes are suitable for all children 5 years and older. Students learn hip hop techniques, dance steps and tricks. They also learn discipline, behavioural expectations and rhythm in a fun and dynamic environment. Hip Hop appeals to both boys and girls alike and we have quite a mixed gender Hip Hop group at Island Dance. If your child loves to move, wants to meet new friends and have a great time, our Hip Hop class is for you. 

Acrobatic Arts

Picture
Children from 3 years upwards are eligible to participate in our Acro classes. From our tumble tots to advanced skills there is a level suitable for everyone.
​Following the AcroDance syllabi students will learn a variety of tricks, skills, tumbles and jumps to improve flexibility, rhythm and coordination with a trained and qualified Acrobatic Arts teacher skilled in teaching children of all ages.  If your child is constantly doing cartwheels, bridges and rolls, is physical and loves movement, we recommend they try out our AcroDance class. All levels are set on ability and must be assessed by the Principal, be sure to check with Miss Marie before enrolling to ensure your child goes in to the most suitable level for them.
