Mix & Match Classes
Create your Own Combo Class! A set of 30-minute classes on Monday or Saturday afternoons, this structure allows dancers to pick and choose different styles of dance, without committing to multiple days of the week or hours of classes. Dancers can take classes consecutively, or have a 30-minute break in our waiting area between lessons. Can only Mix Monday with Monday and Saturday with Saturday classes - a mix of Monday/Saturday will result in separate pricing.
Acro 1
In this class students will learn the basics of acrobatics with an influence of dance. Handstands, flexibility, conditioning, and beginning pyramid building are just a few of the elements covered in this class. Students will learn how to support one another physically though lifts and pyramids. Basic flexibility and strength will also be learned to help improve the endless movement possibilities in the acrobatic discipline.
Acro 2
In this class students will learn the more intermediate elements of acrobatics with an influence of dance. Handstands, flexibility, conditioning, and intermediate pyramid building are just a few of the elements covered in this class. Students will learn how to support one another physically though overhead lifts and pyramids. Total body flexibility and strength will also be learned to help improve the endless movement possibilities in the acrobatic discipline.
Adult Dance
This class is for those who want to learn to dance while also getting a fun workout and learn a variety of styles. $25 drop-in.
Ballet
These classes will expose dancers to a classic art form without requiring them to attend Ballet classes several times a week. Students will learn the fundamentals of classical ballet, including posture, alignment, flexibility, strength, and coordination. They practice basic positions and movements at the barre, center work, and across-the-floor combinations, developing technique, balance, musicality, and grace.
Ballet I
Ballet I is the youngest single-style ballet class that is offered. Dancers who are enrolled in any of our Ballet I classes are eligible to take Conditioning for Pointe to work towards earning their first pair of pointe shoes.
Ballet II
Ballet II is designed for ballet students who have had at least two consecutive years of ballet training in Ballet I. Beginning Pointe dancers are required to enroll in Ballet II and Conditioning for Pointe. Ballet II students may take Ballet I classes for additional technique or consult their instructor about taking Ballet III as a challenge class (teacher recommendation required).
Ballet III
Ballet III is designed for ballet students who have completed three consecutive years of ballet training (teacher recommendation is required). Ballet III aligns with the level of Int./Adv. Pointe. Students in Ballet III may take Ballet II as an additional ballet technique class.
Beginning Acro
In this class students will be learning the building blocks of acrobatics. Students will learn the basics in tumbling, handstands, flexibility, pyramid building, and air-awareness movement. Students will learn how to support one another physically through partnering, group lifts and pyramids. Elements of basic circus essentials will also be introduced to gain a greater exposure to the circus arts. Strength training will be done throughout to help improve the level of ability and aid in the endless movement possibilities in the acrobatic discipline.
Broadway Jazz
Broadway jazz is similar to Broadway Tap in that it is a kind of show dancing you might see in live musicals, shows, and theatre performances. Broadway Jazz incorporates the turns, jumps, and leaps of a typical jazz technique class into a story-telling characterization that might be seen in a musical production.
Broadway Musicals: Performing
Think Broadway appreciation club meets acting meets dance. Each month, dancers will learn about a different famous broadway musical, talk through the story, listen to the music, and learn a piece of the choreography. Dances learned may be replicas of actual Broadway choreography, or variations inspired by the various musicals. This class is not style-specific, so the teacher will let you know which dance style will be the focus month-to-month. Students will get a bit of it all: tap, jazz, contemporary, and ballet. Also highlighted in this class will be the art of stage presence, which in turn will create more confident, expressive, and consistent performers.
Broadway Tap
Broadway Tap is a kind of show dancing you might see in live musicals, shows, and theatre performances. In this class dancers will learn to tap to famous musicals and broadway tunes in a theatrical style.
Cheer
Learn elements of cheerleading in the context of dance! This class will focus on the importance of rhythm and musicality, flexibility and stretching, and learn performative choreography.
Creative Ballet
Dancers will learn beginning ballet technique and vocabulary in a developmentally appropriate manner. This class will also allow children to express themselves creatively using inspiring props, story dancing, creative dramatics, and folk dancing. Let your child fall in love with dance at a young age so that they will want to continue to improve their dance technique as they grow!
Creative Dance
If your child has been in Dance and Play for a year and you feel like they are ready for new challenges, but are not quite ready or old enough for the structure of the 3-5 age group classes, this is a good in-between option. This class will have some jazz and ballet elements, but will mostly be focused on fun, creative activities designed to get the dancers out of their comfort zone and learn to be confident in dancing without their parents. The class is 45min long, as opposed to Dance and Play’s 30min — but like Dance and Play, this class will repeat curriculum every two weeks. Think: Dance and Play but longer and with no parent participation, but with the security of still having parents nearby, and the structure to know what to expect.
Creative Tap
Like Creative Ballet, this class will teach your child the basic fundamentals of tap in a way that is both age and developmentally-appropriate. Classes will run largely on a set structure, with tap shoes coming off towards the end to do both freestyle and teacher-led creative activities. Dancers will learn the basics of rhythm, timing, and how to follow a group, as well as short pieces of choreography that vary month to month. We will stomp like Dinosaurs, drive cars like Bluey, and tippy-toe like mice. It’ll be a fun time for sure!
Contemporary
This class will combine elements of Ballet, Modern, Lyrical, Jazz, and Improv. Contemporary is an expressive style of dance. The dancers will learn to tell stories and interpret emotions and ideas through technical and fluid movement.
Conditioning for Pointe
This class is designed to be taken in conjunction with regular ballet technique classes and does not participate in the annual recital. It focuses on developing the essential strength, flexibility, and body awareness required for safe and successful pointe work. Students will engage in targeted exercises to enhance foot articulation, improve alignment, and build strength in the ankles, legs, core, and upper body. This class is required for all dancers who would like to be considered for pointe, as well as for those currently enrolled in Beginning Pointe.
Dance 'n Play
Young dancers explore movement with parents and peers while enjoying activities and props set to fun music. A great way to introduce young children to dance and social learning.
Dance Making
This class will teach students the necessary skills needed to create their own choreography. Focus will be on exercises and techniques intended to guide the students’ own artistry. Each student will create a full piece over the course of the session.
Hip Hop (I/II)
Hip Hop is a street-originated style of dance. Students will be kept up-to-date on the latest moves and music trends as seen in pop culture. This class is perfect for high-energy dancers who like to get funky.
Jazz
Jazz dance emphasizes a rhythmic awareness. Includes technique, stretching, strengthening and combinations. *Contemporary Jazz places an emphasis on conveying a story or emotional connection.
Jazz Funk
Jazz Funk, or Street Jazz, is a hybrid of hip hop and jazz. While not considered to be actually hip hop, jazz funk borrows many movements from hip hop and combines them with underlying jazz technique. The result is fun, upbeat choreography to strong beats and rhythms.
Junior TOPs
Junior TOPs is the training program for TOPs. It will consist of technical training and will provide more performing opportunities. A strong commitment to our 10-month program is expected. This class is invitation only and is closed for observation.
K-Pop
K-Pop is set apart from other music not just by its energetic beats or dominant language, but also by its choreography. K-Pop performances often involve fast, coordinated and precise group dancing that is high-energy and synchronized. Dancers in this class will learn choreography from famous K-pop performances, practice dancing in a group, and listen to K-pop artists such as BTS and BLACKPINK.
Modern
Modern dance began in the early 20th century as a reaction to classical Ballet and focuses on the expression of emotion through core and upper bodywork, improvisation, and floor work. Students will learn vocabulary, floor work, and choreograph
Mini Acro
In this class students and their parent/caregiver will be introduced to the building blocks of acrobatics. Basic tumbling, handstands, flexibility, and pyramid building are just a few of the elements that will be covered in this class. Students and their parent/caregiver will learn how to support one another physically through partnering and group lifts and pyramids. Elements of basic circus essentials will also be introduced through fun movement to gain a greater exposure to the circus arts. Strength will also be taught throughout to help improve the endless movement possibilities in the acrobatic discipline.
Parent & Child Tap
Learn to tap alongside your child together! Parent dances free.
Pointe
*All pointe dancers must be enrolled in at least one ballet technique class in order to be eligible
Beginning Pointe
Dancers invited to join Beginning Pointe must demonstrate a sufficient understanding of alignment and have adequate strength to avoid injury. To be eligible for a pointe promotion, dancers must be at least 11 years old, have two years of ballet experience, and be assessed by an instructor. [Assessments are conducted in Conditioning for Pointe class, which is required for dancers to be enrolled in to be eligible for a pointe promotion]. This class will help dancers develop the strength, alignment, and technique to dance en Pointe at the barre and on the floor. Please wait until instructed to purchase pointe shoes. Beginning Point students must also enroll in Ballet II and Conditioning for Pointe.
Intermediate/Advanced Pointe
Dancers invited to join Int./Adv. Pointe have developed the proper strength at the barre in order to perform intermediate level steps properly en Pointe. For dancers to be invited to join the Int/Adv. Pointe class, they must demonstrate a sufficient understanding of alignment and adequate strength in their pointe shoes to avoid injury while dancing without a barre. To be eligible for a pointe promotion to Int/Adv Pointe class, dancers must have three years of ballet experience and be assessed by an instructor. This class will help dancers further their skills in dancing en pointe off the barre, performing more complex steps en pointe. Int./Adv. Pointe students must also be enrolled in Ballet III.
"Pop" Hop
This exciting class is an age-appropriate version of hip hop for younger dancers. “Pop” Hop will use today’s pop songs and moves, creating a fun way for our young dancers to get funky! It will also include cardio, circuits, and strength training moves.
Performing Group Workshop
Invite-only class. This summer class is optional for current TOPs and Jr TOPs members, but recommended to keep skills sharp. Classes will rotate between select CDT staff and present a variety of styles.
Tap (I/II)
Tap is a true American art form. While combining classic dance steps with rhythmic syncopation, students will develop a sharper sense of rhythm and coordination. Tap dancers will enjoy memorizing fun combinations and making “music” with their own feet!
TOPs (Team of Performers)
Creative Dance Theatre is very proud to be represented by this amazing team of dancers! This well-rounded program consists of various styles of dance. Aside from building stronger dancers and performers, being a member of our “team” gives teens a safe, accepting environment to learn with the focus placed on positive things! This class is invitation only and is closed for observation.
Turns and Leaps
Turns and Leaps is a half-hour technique class in which students focus primarily on technique as opposed to choreography. This class will help students master the building blocks that will lead to more advanced types of jumps, leaps, and turns that are commonly incorporated into dances.
