Jazz dance is an upbeat, expressive style rooted in rhythm, isolations, and dynamic movements—often blending classical technique with contemporary music and choreography.
Hip Hop is a high-energy style born from street dance culture, focused on musicality, freestyle movement, and personal expression.

We offer Jazz and Hip Hop classes for dancers starting at age 9 (however ages 7-8 may study jazz/hip hop if accompanied with Ballet or at least one prior year of beginner Ballet experience), with beginner through advanced levels for children, teens, and adults. Class placement is based on age and experience.

No experience is needed for our beginner-level Jazz or Hip Hop classes! We welcome dancers of all skill levels and help them progress in a supportive environment.

Students in Jazz and Hip Hop classes will build:

• Strength, flexibility, and stamina

• Coordination and rhythm

• Musicality and movement vocabulary

• Choreography and performance skills

• Confidence and personal style

Yes! Jazz/Hip Hop dancers have the exciting option to participate in our annual June recital. It’s a fun and confidence-building experience, but completely optional. Costumes are ordered in December, and recital tickets go on sale in May. Whether or not your child performs, they’ll still enjoy a full season of joyful movement and learning.
