The ballet portion includes barre fundamentals such as positions of the arms and feet, balance and stretching. The fusion portion includes isolations and across the floor combinations required for both jazz and hip hop. Dance games are also incorporated into these lessons.
In Ballet I, young dancers receive a basic introduction to ballet steps and positions, while enhancing their motor skills and coordination to music. Classes are structured with time at the barre and center floor but will also include fun dance games, story-telling with movement and free dance with various props.

Our ballet classes are strongly encouraged for all school aged students. Through ballet dance lessons, students learn ballet terminology, positions, steps, combinations, stretching and ballet dances. The student gains an understanding of balance, grace and freedom of movement through proper body alignment and placement. All forms of western dance taught at the studio - jazz, lyrical, contemporary, hip-hop, and Mexican Folkloric - require knowledge of basic ballet technique and terminology. Beginning through advanced levels.
Students will grow their abilities in both smooth and hard-hitting Hip Hop styles and develop their rhythm, coordination, and attitude! Learn to dance the greatest grooves to the latest beats in Hip Hop dance lessons. These powerful, high energy classes are great for kids who love to move and have plenty of drive. Group classes are available for students aged 6 and up, beginning and continuing levels. We use clean music.
Mexican Folkloric Dance showcases the Mexican culture and heritage in the traditional dance, music, song, dress and history of Mexico. Mexico's modern folk dance tradition is a blending of elements from its Indigenous, African, and European heritage. Mexican Folkloric dance has had an important impact on the culture of the United States, especially in Mexican American communities such as Berwyn, Cicero, and Chicago's Little Village and Pilsen neighborhoods. We offer beginning through advanced levels and a performance group.
Pointe class is the part of classical ballet technique that concerns training "sur les pointes," supporting all the body weight on the tips of fully extended feet in specially crafted pointe shoes. Only advanced ballet dancers 12 years of age or older, who pass a readiness test, and have the instructor's permission are eligible to take pointe class.
Contemporary dance is considered an independent discipline that melds jazz, ballet, and American modern dance together. It is usually performed to instrumental music and also makes greater use of the floor to diversify the movement. Lyrical is contemporary dance performed to music with lyrics so that it inspires expression of strong emotions the choreographer feels from the lyrics of the song. The dance can tell a story or not, be an pure exploration of movement, or be a combination of patterns that evoke a certain feeling in the dancer, and ideally also in the audience.
Ever been so happy you wanted to do backflip? Learn how here! Acrobatics is tumbling and much more!

Our students learn the importance of agility, concentration, coordination, and strength in order to use their muscles properly to perform acrobatic skills. We offer beginning and continuing classes.
Learn to play piano on our beautiful baby grand piano! Piano lessons will not only teach students to read music, but they will learn the progressive finger techniques involved in playing the piano.
