CAROLINA DANCE CAPITAL - RECREATIONAL PROGRAM INFORMATION
Recreational Dance Program!
Our TEACHING STAFF has more than 100 years of combined experience in dance education. We choose to teach intimately sized classes, allowing effective student - teacher ratios conducive to thorough learning!
We offer TAP classes where the students wear Tap shoes and learn to make rhythms through sound out of their feet. We have Tap classes for ALL ages and levels of experience! Tap is done to upbeat music from all eras allowing for a good workout.
Offered JAZZ classes combine ballet basics with expressive movement! The students wear ballet shoes, jazz shoes or foot thongs, depending on the class level. We offer Jazz classes to students who have basic ballet experience, starting at age 4-6 on up through adult. Jazz can be done to upbeat music and incorporates a lot of stretch as well.
BALLET is the foundation of any dancer. The ballet classes teach positioning and poise to even 2 yr olds! We offer all levels of ballet to any age dancer! Ballet shoes are worn in all ages and levels of class.
LYRICAL is an expressive style of dance incorporating ballet and jazz movements to interpret the lyrics of a song. This style is introduced as early as 6-8 years old.
HIP HOP is a street style of dance used to incorporate rhythm and coordination! Hip Hop has grown to be such a popular form of dance in studios nationwide. Tennis shoes are worn in this class, as well as street clothing; no dancewear is required! This class is available for ages 8 and under, 9-12 years and 13 and over.
GYMNASTICS incorporates flexibility, strength, stretch and power! We teach floor work on mats only, consisting of everything from cartwheels to aerials! We offer this class for ages 2
and up!
DANCE WEAR needs to be worn in all classes (except hip hop) but is the choice of the dancer as far as style, color, etc! We do not require specific dancewear for any classes other than Ballet classes that are 1 hour or more each week. In that case the ballerinas wear pink tights and black leotards. It is also helpful to keep long hair up and back.
RECREATIONAL DANCE is for fun and learning! Students will be confident and poised from dancing and taking gymnastics. Classes typically meet once a week and the fall season starts August 4, 2010! Every year in May we have an exciting "End of the Season Recital" at Ovens Auditorium to celebrate the accomplishments of all the dancers ! No tickets need to be purchased for this event, and family and friends are welcome as well.
Don't miss our OPEN HOUSE .You can register early and we encourage those interested to do so by phoning in, stopping by, or filling out their registration online, as classes fill quickly due to demand and our desire to keep class sizes conducive to learning!
