| Pre-Ballet & Tap ~ Pre-Ballet & Jazz ~ Pre-School Hip-Hop These Creative Movement Classes are designed specifically for preschoolers ages 2 to 4. Through KSPA's Dance Magic, children learn basic ballet positions, basic tap or jazz steps and movement. In KSPA's Pre-School Hip-Hop classes, dancers build on their knowledge of ballet and tap or jazz in a super fun classroom environment. Dancers will learn to use their bodies and imaginations while exploring their creativity on the dance floor. Your dancer will develop an awareness of music and rhythms while they begin to explore the many capabilities of their own bodies. Pre-School Classes require specific dancewear packages which may be ordered thru KSPA. Skirts, leg warmers, and sweaters are nice, but not required. |

| Hip Hop / Jazz Hip-Hop & Jazz are today's most popular form of dance! KSPA's Hip-Hop & Jazz classes teach fundamental jazz steps in combination with the element of hip hop moves and popular music. KSPA has found that the combination of jazz and hip hop is ideal for learning proper technique while having a TON of FUN. Dancers learn the necessary elements of jazz which are crucial to success in hip hop, but also get to learn hip hop moves which require the coordination and balance learned from jazz. Hip- Hop & Jazz Classes are offered for dancers ages 3 and up! |
| Tap Basic tap technique with emphasis on rhythm and sound. Each class begins with center floor warmups; new steps are added each week to constantly build tap ability and vocabulary. Dancers learn to connect individual steps through center floor work. Footwork becomes more intricate and a variety of arm movements are added for higher difficulty. Combinations are taught during each class enabling dancers to become familiar with connecting steps together in a variety of rhythms. We define tap as Pure Fun! Come join our SUPER fun Tap Classes. You will enjoy it no matter what your age! |
| Lyrical A very expressive form of dance, lyrical is a blend of both jazz and ballet technique, with a strong ballet base. Dancers "tell a story" with movement and facial expression. Besides emotional connection to the music, lyrical dance typical encourages use of articulation, line weight and movement qualities. Contemporary Contemporary Classes give students the opportunity to go beyond ballet to explore more freedom of movement and learn how to control their bodies off center. Students will broaden their movement vocabulary and improve their ability to learn a variety of combinations with unusual shapes, lines, and rhythms. |
