ABOUT
While classical ballet is the base for all forms of dancing, we are increasingly challenged to move in modern or contemporary ways. This class introduces movements that will help dancers expand their bodies and minds which is essential for the growth of a ballet dancer as an artist and athlete. Elements of Graham: The Graham technique of modern dance was developed in the early 20th century by Martha Graham. It is considered to be the among the first codified modern dance techniques, and most later forms borrow freely from Graham. The "Elements of Graham" technique class includes floor work, standing exercises, movement across the floor, and falls.

ABOUT
This open level class is where adults can come and learn a dance style, whether they are total beginners, they haven’t done it since they were kids, or they already have all the skills. Open level means that we will all dance together so a few things will seem really easy to the old pros while a few things will be too hard for the beginner, but we all learn and progress and challenge ourselves together.
