Dance

Due to renovations, ACA will not be running dance lessons in 2010. Apologies for any inconvenience.

About the teachers...

 

 

Ballet

Ballet

The most common style of all. Will always follow a structured lesson with the aim to develop technique, flexibility and expression of preset choreography at both the barre and in the centre. Classes will be tailored to suit previous experience/skill level so that everyone will feel comfortable in their class. Appropriate ballet shoes are a necessity for this class, as well as comfortable attire. Please ask assistance before purchasing any shoes.

Contemporary

Contemporary

Focuses heavily on expression and the ability of an individual to manipulate and control their body with or without accompanying music. Contemporary works all parts of the body and works to tell a story or portray a feeling through a performance. This style provides a great opportunity for people who may not necessarily consider themselves dancers to experience the benefits and satisfaction of dance without feeling under pressure to learn extensive dance routines. Classes would be quite laid-back aiming at improving muscular strength and then venturing to creating a collaborative performance piece in which all dancers would have a say.

Hip-Hop

Hip-Hop

Otherwise called street dancing. Basically a casual style of dance usually performed and rehearsed to Top 40 RnB tracks, performed in sneakers, can be simple or quite complicated depending on the level. This style works a lot with groups and rhythmic cooperation between members of a group. Hip Hop dancing can be heaps of fun for every age and really develops, strong rhythmic and freestyling techniques at any level. The most fun for dancers who have little experience and enjoy up tempo music.

Jazz Ballet

Jazz Ballet

Most easily defined as the "happy medium" between freestyle dance and ballet. The class will be broken into basic stretching and exercises that will develop skills that can be used in the choreography as the class progresses. Again, Jazz ballet dancers learn skills of timing and flexibility as well as group formation and presentation.
