8 LYRICAL/ CONTEMPORARY A compilation of different styles of dance, including jazz, lyrical, classical ballet and modern with more emphasis on expressive movement, emotion and storytelling. The discipline concentrates on ones individual approach to dance rather than technical steps. HIP HOP Hip hop dancing is an urban dance genre that blends music styles and dance moves. It has become a very popular style in recent years due to the generations interest in commercial dance. Most musical tours and music videos incorporate the art of hip hop. As the focus is not on technique in these classes, a student is required to take a jazz or ballet class in the same term. -8 years Monday :0-7:1 - NEW Tuesday 7:00-7: - FULL* Saturday 11:1-1: years Monday 7:1-8:00 - NEW Tuesday 7: - 8:0 - FULL* Friday :0 - :0 EM HF -7 years Tuesday :0 - :1 8-1 years Thursday :00 - : Saturday 1:0-1: EM 1+ years Level 1 Friday 7:0-8:0 HF 1+ years Level Friday :0-7:0 HF * Class full, waitlist available, contact the studio for details
