Hip-Hop
This hour long class revolves around a contemporary style of
street dance. It uses lots of cardio movements to current music.
Younger classes are all kept clean in terms of movements and
music used for classes!
- Lyrical - This hour long class combines the techniques of ballet and jazz to create a
smooth, contemporary style of dancing. Technique, exercises, and combinations are
reviewed weekly.
- Advanced Combo – Greater Austin Dance Academy believes that the best dancers are
well-rounded dancers. Therefore, these classes are designed for the serious dancers
ages 10+. Within the two and a half hour class (advanced level is three and a half hours),
classes are taught in ballet, tap, and jazz. Students must be placed by the director in
these classes. Please see/call director for questions about placement.
- Extra Ballet - This artistic dance form is characterized by grace and precision of
movement and an elaborate formal technique. Developing body alignment, posture,
working flexibility, strength and coordinating movement are all stressed at this time. Ballet
is the core upon which all other dance forms are built. Therefore, students wishing to take
jazz classes or be in the company MUST be enrolled in at least one ballet class each
week. Students wishing to be on Pointe MUST take at least TWO ballet classes per
week. The extra ballet class is an hour and a half in length.
- Pointe - This subject is an extension of ballet for intermediate to advanced dancers.
Pointe class must be taken in conjunction with TWO ballet classes. It is an hour in length.
