Butterfly Dance Academy

Creative Dance - Dance for our 31/2 to 5 year olds. This 45 minute class combines music, rhythms, props poetry, imagination and movement to inspire children to dance with joy!

Beginning Dance 1 & 2 - the next step for ages 6 - 9 who are not ready for full intensive dance study. This class combines the basics of Ballet, Jazz, Modern and Musical Theater in a fast paced fun filled hour.

Intermediate Ballet / Prepointe - This class is where the discipline of ballet begins. Special attention is given to proper technique. The student is molded in proper turnout and body placement. We teach classical discipline based on the School of American Ballet (SAB) and Royal Academy (RAD).

Advanced Ballet / Pointe - The pointe lessons are started only after a student reaches at least 11 years of age and after two to four years of intense ballet training. We have a check list that each student must have signed before being allowed to train on pointe.

Jazz / Modern - Jazz dance is based on movement to jazz and modern music. We teach classical jazz. Modern Dance is abstract movement to modern music. These forms of dance are much less disciplined than ballet, but are sometimes used in modern ballet performance.
