HIP HOP
The Bronx in the early 1970s was home to many struggles for minorities which pushed them to find their own way to escape hardships. This created the culture we now know as hip hop.
Through old school foundations and new school influences, our hip hop classes focus on creating versatile dancers that feel confident exploring their own movements.
INTRO TO DANCE
PRESCHOOL
Preschool is for dancers ages 3-4 who have not yet entered school that love to dance! This class will be filled with creative movement, games, follow-along songs, and lots of basic ballet elements!
BALLET
Being one of the oldest genres in the dance world, ballet began to take its iconic structure and formality in the 15th century, tracing back to the Italian Renaissance.
At Studio 26, we follow the Adapt syllabus for all ballet training with the goal of creating polished dancers with proper technique and strength to improve their other styles.
CONTEMPORARY
Combining elements from jazz, ballet and lyrical, contemporary emphasizes a more abstract concept allowing for more versatility.
In our Contemporary classes, we focus on exploring our own movement through improvisation and incorporating technique from more structured styles.
JAZZ
Jazz dancing originated in the late 1800s from African Americans intuitively, combining their rhythmic, traditional styles with structured European movements.
In our classes we focus on the foundations of jazz technique by following the Adapt syllabus and adding in moves that incorporates its African roots.
