The Twinkle Toes class is for all budding
dancers aged between 3 and 5 years. This class offers the opportunity
to try a little bit of everything! Within the 45 minutes, children
will learn the basis of Tap, Modern, Disco and even a little bit
of Cheerleading. All this along to their favourite songs from
Disney to the latest chart music. The emphasis is for children
to have loads of fun, gain movement skills and increase energy
(as if they don't have enough already!!).
Note to parents - If you wish to stay while your child
is in the Twinkle Toes Class, seating will be provided just
outside the hall. This way, children have the security of knowing
where you are, but are not inhibited by having adults in the
room while they are dancing.
For all those who can't keep their feet
still and their toes are always tapping, the Tap class is for
you! Tap is a classic form of dance which has been used for years
in shows and musicals. It can be simple or detailed and can leave
scope for a variety of interpretation. The Tap class will involve
learning traditional steps in order to construct routines which
can be danced to songs from both past and present. For example,
some of my favourite songs are: Another Opening Another Show,
That's Entertainment and All That Jazz. However,
I also hope to include up to date music to bring a more modern
feel to tap dancing.
Also included in the Tap class is Modern
dancing. Tap and Modern dancing are collectively known as Stage.
Modern Dance was originally derived from Ballet, created by people
looking for a freer way to convey their emotions. Today Modern
dance is flowing and allows pupils to express themselves through
the dance steps. Once again, I hope to combine the traditional
with the new in creating fun dances to music I'm sure everyone
will enjoy.
In this class, anything goes! Freestyle
is exactly that - FREE STYLE. Although there are some set moves,
dances can be made up of almost any move you can think of. This
is an extremely energetic and fun form of dancing. Included in
the hour you will learn lively routines to your favourite songs.
If you ever wanted to be on Top Of The Pops or CD:UK, then this
class is definitely for you! Combining elements of Street Dance,
Disco and individual expression, this class is guaranteed to keep
you fit and keep you smiling.
This may sound a bit different, but Dance
Cheer Pom is basically cheerleading without any stunting. This
means you will learn all the dance based elements of cheerleading.
Please note, no lifts or throws will be taught (we don't want
any injuries!). This type of dancing includes a lot of arm movements
and more than often team work. So, pom-poms in hand, you'll be
cheering and dancing like a real cheerleader in no time!
Adult classes are a great way to have
fun and keep fit, while learning to dance. It's never too late
to learn and if you have danced before, why not pick it up again!
Classes run in Tap and Freestyle and now Cheerleading! There's
no need to worry if you are a beginner or a fast-footed diva,
there will be something to suit all, including classic songs and
up to date beats.
