In this intro class we will using the beginning equipment to enhance their knowledge, growth, flexibility, strength and confidence. They will start with the different stations to learn the basic gymnastic technique; balance beam, cheese mats, mailbox blocks, hexagon, cartwheel helper mat, handstand helper mat, monkey bar (just one), and springboard. Other items may be used as props to also support their understanding and growth in this sport/art form.

This class is designed to teach basic trampoline, tumbling, flexibility and motor skills while having fun.

Gymnastics
This class exercises developing or displaying physical agility and coordination.

We do seasonal shows demonstrating skills and routines that we have been working to pass off. It is fun and a chance to progress on a non-competitive level.

Hip-Hip/Breakdance
A boys and girls Break-dance, hip-hop, freestyle, tumbling & improv club. The words ‘Break Boy and Break Girl’ originated from the Bronx of New York. In the early 70’s they would play the ‘breaks’ of songs. Meaning, they would only play parts of the songs where it was beat only, no lyrics. This would excite the people to dance. So in turn girls and guys who danced to these ‘breaks’ were called ‘Break Boy and Break Girl’ or ‘B-Boy; B-Girl’ in short. B-Boys (for the most part) incorporated martial art stunts to ‘wow’ the crowds. And today b-boying has evolved into a highly demanding dance physically and mentally. With massive b-boy dance competitions being held around the world, these young ones will be in for one sweet treat as we train them how to Break-dance to songs containing drum breaks, especially in hip-hop, funk, soul music and break beat music, although modern trends allow for much wider varieties of music along certain ranges of tempo and beat patterns!
Ballroom
Open to Fridays for Private Lessons or to start a class (any age)
Joy School
Open to Weekdays (ages 2-6)
Tumbling/Dance to follow
The central belief of Joy School (Ages 2-5) is simply that children, while in their most impressionable years, should be taught life’s most important thing (various capacities for joy). A related belief held by Joy School is that children suffer not from being started in academic learning too late, but in starting too soon, before they have a basis of social and emotional self-esteem. The overall goal of Joy School is to popularize parenting (give parents more “want-to”) and then to assist parents through the organized “parenting by objective” approach to Joy School (give parents more “how-to”). We have learned that the program “sells itself” to those who agree with the thesis that JOY is the most important thing to teach preschoolers. As a dance studio we focus on teaching the Joy School curriculum through movement. At times fundamental subjects of school will be incorporated as we move through the space bridging the gap of the arts and those regular day to day subjects. Letting kids move creatively helps them express that joy for their bodies and surroundings.
