DANCE CLASSES

  • JAZZ

    Jazz is one of the most popular forms of dance. It is a combination of both ballet and modern techniques. Cassiah’s Dance Company Jazz classes focus on the technical aspects of this style while incorporating upbeat popular music to keep the dancer interested and energized. While following the ADAPT Syllabus, the dancer will focus on gaining flexibility, strength, endurance, body alignment, and musicality.

    **CDC offers Jazz Examinations for all students who meet the requirements of the graded curriculum**

  • LYRICAL

    Lyrical dance is a combination of both ballet and jazz techniques. Lyrical classes are taught with the aim of developing expressive dancers who are able to analyze song lyrics and tell a story through their movement. While taking lyrical, dancers will develop strength, control, and enhance their ability to interpret music.

  • TAP

    Tap is a unique style of dance involving specific and rapid footwork. Tap shoes act as a drum, and each part of the shoe makes a particular beat and sound based on the dancer’s movement. Tap classes focus on developing coordination between one’s feet and the beat, while maintaining the ability to perform despite concentration. While following the ADAPT Syllabus techniques, the dancer will focus on gaining coordination, endurance, musicality and multitasking abilities.

  • HIP-HOP

    Hip-Hop dance is made up of a wide range of “street dance” styles, associated with the Hip-Hop culture born in New York City in the mid-’70s. Hip-Hop classes at CDC incorporate a variety of hip-hop techniques and popular ‘party moves’, from the 70s to present day. While enjoying its high-energy music and movement components, dancers develop coordination, strength, and rhythm, leaving room for personal interpretation.

  • MUSICAL THEATRE

    Musical Theatre is a style that combines three vital art forms; dancing, acting, and vocals (singing). While learning important foundations of stage performance, this style teaches dancers to analyze song lyrics and effectively communicate the story to the audience, through both vocal and physical expression. Cassiah’s Dance Company musical theatre classes are devoted to bringing DANCING, ACTING, and VOCAL technique training to each class. In addition to this, CDC puts emphasis on building confidence within students, preparing them for future auditions/performances in front of widespread audiences.
