Teaching Methods

methods

We have been part of the dance business for 35 years. Our programs will allow you to learn at your own pace, and our method of training is geared towards your needs and interests. By using a combination of private lessons, group classes, and practice parties, our teaching system has proven to be successful.

Our Instructors

Our teachers are carefully selected and trained to bring you the finest in dancing instruction. In addition, instructors must pass certification tests for each level we offer, keeping-up-to date with the newest techniques and styles. Therefore, you will be learning not only from the best dancers, but also from the most qualified teachers.

Private Lessons

During your one-on-one private lessons, you will receive personalized instruction that will help you achieve your goals in dancing. Your instructor will spend the time necessary on technique, styling, and general dance improvement. An up-to-date record of everything you have learned will also be kept as part of your instruction.

Group Classes

Group Classes are an important supplement to your private instruction. They give you the opportunity to dance with a variety of partners, develop good dance habits, and meet other students in the studio. In Group Classes we emphasize technique, style, and variation of patterns. You may be taught materials that your regular instructor hasn’t introduced to you yet. Additionally, material that has been introduced will be reviewed and practiced for improvement. Please check our calendar for the Group Class schedule.

Practice Sessions (Parties)

We host scheduled dance parties (practice sessions) here at the studio every week. A party environment is created as we turn the lights down low, play a variety of songs, and simply have fun dancing. Practice sessions create a relaxed and comfortable environment for you to practice your dancing with numerous instructors available to assist. This gives you the opportunity to meet other students in the studio and try out all the new dance skills that you’ve learned in your Private Lessons and Group Classes. Please check our calendar for the Practice Party schedule.Back to Top

Medal Balls

AMedal Ball is a gala dance event. It is held to honor students who graduate from one level of their dance program to the next. Medal Balls are a great way to enjoy dancing in a fun and elegant setting.

Classics

The Five Star Classic is a fun-filled day of dancing and competition. Here you will see many different levels of dancing, from beginning to those that have studied into their Silver and Gold levels. You will only be competing with people at your level and in the same age category. Even if you have never competed or even thought about it, we have designed the day to be enjoyable for all of our students!

Showcases

A Showcase is a one-day event during which students present dance routines with original choreography. These routines make an exciting addition to the Medalist Program because they allow you to develop showmanship and musical expression in addition to your social dance skills.

Dance Sport / Competition

A Dance Sport/Competition is an exciting two or three day event that brings students together from studios around the nation and world to compete in dances of their choice (at their current level). Specialized dance training is needed to polish and perfect choreography, technique, and style. The weekend is full of fun and exciting activities such as dance competitions, cocktail parties, dinner dances, and exciting professional shows!Back to Top
