Tap
A form of percussion that teaches the dancer about syncopation, rhythm and musicality. Specific shoes are worn by dancers that allow them to create unique sounds.
Contemporary
Contemporary is an expressive style of dance that incorporates elements of ballet, jazz, and modern dance. This style of dance teaches students abstract movements, floor work, and improvisational skills.​
Jazz
Jazz blends a variety of dance styles to create ground movement, isolations, and syncopation. Jazz is typically paired with upbeat music and large movements by dancers to create an aesthetically pleasing style of dance.​
Clogging
Clogging is another form of percussion that uses 'double tap' shoes to provide a unique sound. This is a very high energy style of dance that requires large amounts of physical endurance and is normally performed to upbeat music.
Musical Theater
This program not only teaches dance technique, but also works on acting and performing skills. This style of dance relies on the knowledge of Jazz, Ballet, and Tap.
Irish Tap
Irish Tap is another form of percussion that incorporates ballet movements. It is generally a stiff upper body with fast and precise movement of the feet.
Tiny Tots
This program is designed to introduce dance to children of ages 2.5 to 5. As opposed to the standard length dance season, there will be 2 different sessions of ballet/tap and hip hop.​
Ballet
Ballet is structured to help students develop technique, overall body strength, and balance that assists them with every style of dance.
Hip Hop
For many years hip hop has become a social form of dancing that is energetic while combining old-school with modern dance moves.
Acro Dance
Acro dance is a style of dance that combines classical dance technique with precision acrobatic elements. It is defined by its athletic character and unique choreography, which seamlessly blends dance and acrobatics.
Pointe
Pointe technique is one of the most iconic elements of ballet. The inspiration for pointe technique is the wish that the ballet dancer appears weightless, light-footed, and graceful while performing on the tips of fully extended feet.
Adult Dance
Stay in shape and have fun while you do it. This class is for all levels, no dance experience required. ALDA will offer Hip Hop & Clogging.
