Aerial Hammock
Open to anyone who has taken the intro or has previous experiences. With less time focused on introduction and instruction on the basic holds and wraps, more time is spent exploring deeper inversions, transitions and aerial flips and tricks.
Ballet
Our Ballet classes offer open and beginner levels. The open level is targeted to the advanced beginner/intermediate but higher levels are welcome. Our approach is centered around inclusive and accessible practices.Shake Your Soul
Experience the JOY of dance through Shake Your Soul!
Shake Your Soul is a dynamic movement practice that energizes your body, relaxes your nervous system, and awakens your soul through a dance repertoire set to a variety of music. Fun, freeing, meditative, graceful, and sweaty, the class invites you to dance from within and with others in community.
Absolutely no dance experience is needed to experience this body mind connection. This class is appropriate for all levels and welcomes all movers and music lovers.Somatic Conditioning
Somatic conditioning refers to a form of exercise and bodywork that focuses on enhancing body awareness, improving movement patterns, and promoting overall physical and mental well-being. It integrates principles from somatic practices, which emphasize the internal experience of the body rather than external performance. This approach encourages mindful, conscious movement that respects the body's natural alignment, rhythm, and needs.Contemporary Modern
Our Contemporary Modern classes blend the foundations of modern dance with contemporary styles. These classes encourage participants to work on musicality, improvisation, and dynamic movement. Each teacher brings their own history and style to class, in a fun, supportive, and engaging way.
Introduction to Pointe
This class is designed to prepare students for pointe work, including those who are already experienced. Not all students will start in pointe shoes immediately; progression within the class will be individualized. Teaching artist approval is required before wearing pointe shoes in class to ensure the student has the necessary mobility, strength, and endurance for a safe introduction to this optional aspect of ballet technique.
Prerequisites for Class:
-4+ years of ballet training
-2 years of recent consistent ballet training with attendance for at least the past 3 months
Prerequisites for Transitioning from Slippers to Pointe Shoes:
-Adequate Foot Mobility: Ability to rise to demi-pointe with a straight line through the torso and ankle in 1st, 3rd, or 5th positions, and demi-2nd position.
-Isometric Stability & Strength: Ability to maintain turnout in relevé and hold retiré for 30 seconds on each side with a straight knee, stable pelvic alignment, consistent turnout, and no excessive ankle pronation or supination.
-Proprioception & Specific Strength: Ability to demonstrate 2 out of 3 prerequisite exercises often used to evaluate readiness for pointe training—airplane, sauté, or topple test—and the use of demi-plié with heels down in technique class.
Recommended Movement Practice:
2 dance classes and 2 fitness/movement practices per week, with 1 being ballet. Other classes should focus on strength, cardio, Pilates, and/or a release/recovery style.
