We endeavour to make dance fun, enjoyable and uplifting for your spirit.

FUNKY JAZZ / HiP HOP

Our Funky Jazz/Hip Hop class is a combination of Hip Hop and Jazz technique. Including the latest moves from popular dance crews around the world, music video clips and even a little break dancing. Funky Jazz is by far our most popular performing arts class.

BOYS HiP HOP & BREAK DANCE

How cool were these boys in the concert? These classes are for boys who want to learn all the latest hip hop and break dancing moves. Emphasis will be on having fun learning to dance whilst building strength and flexibility.

TWiNKLE JAZZ

Did you enjoy our furry Teddy Bears in the concert? By popular demand we bring you our class for 18 months to 3 year olds. Parents join in this class as well. We learn how to isolate and move different parts of the body for dancing, build on our important muscles for this age group, dance with props, and have lots of fun!

FUNKY JAZZ/HiP HOP & PERFORMANCE CLASS

These classes are for students who want to PERFORM and compete throughout the year. Performance students should be dedicated, hard working, punctual and most of all enthusiastic. All students who have done performance in the past have improved dramatically just by doing this one extra hour a week.

” I always find students who attend the performance classes become more focused, dedicated, flexible, stronger, full of confidence and develop a great team spirit.

All in all – a well rounded DANCER!” – Elizabeth Cooper

ADULT CLASSES

This will be the most fun you’ll have whilst exercising every week. Dance Sensation has adult classes for Funky Jazz/Hip Hop, Tap, Stretch & Strengthen (Pilates & Yoga) & Ballet. Beginners to advanced welcome, there is a place in our classes for EVERYONE. We have a lot of fun and there is the option of performing with your group in the end of year concert.

TAP

Tap is a FUN style of dance which teaches rhythm, speed and coordination. It is great for strengthening the legs and ankles. We will continue with the blend of Elizabeth’s style and the Glenn Wood Tap Syllabus – cruising through the exams this year! I know everyone has wanted those Tap Dogs, Shirley Temple or Fred Astaire shoes at one stage, don’t deprive yourself, come and have some serious fun!

MUSICAL THEATRE (DRAMA & SiNGiNG)

Ever wanted to be Annie or Oliver or Maria von Trapp? Ever dreamt of being on X Factor or simply just want to be able to hold a note? Everybody can sing, it’s just a matter of training you voice, just as you would train to learn how to dance! Our Musical Theatre classes consist of Drama and Singing techniques with basic movement also included. There will be a range of singing and acting styles, theatre sports and a never ending list of musicals to play with!

MODERN BALLET

Elizabeth has combined her knowledge and skills of Classical Ballet, Modern and Contemporary dance to construct a dance style which steers away from the stiff structure of ballet and more towards flowing movement, whilst still emphasizing a strong ballet technique. It’s ballet with an edge!

Stretch & Strengthen (Technique, Strength & Flexibility)

This class incorporates pilates and yoga exercises. Students work on improving these three elements in their dancing. Each term new personal goals are set in stages for students to work towards. Stretch & Strengthen is highly recommended for all students wanting to place an edge on their dancing.
