Classical Ballet
- This is the foundation of all other dance forms. Adagio promotes this discipline foremost, although classes are not compulsory. For young children, age 2 1/2 to 4 years,
we offer Pre Ballet 'Baby' and 'Toddler' classes as a gentle introduction, progressing at the age of 5 to Pre Primary ballet. Pupils then follow the ISTD graded syllabus.
Modern Dance -
Following the ISTD graded syllabus, pupils from the age of 4 can enjoy this fre-er form of dance. These popular classes offer a varied and fun way to
develop creativity and expression through dance, both individually and as part of a group.Tap Dance -
Starting with 'Tiny Tappers' at the age of 4, young children learn the fundamentals of tap through fun and games. As the children progress, tap dancing helps
them to develop an acute sense of rhythm and co-ordination to music. Pupils follow the ISTD graded syllabus as appropriate. Our relaxed adult classes offer a great way to get into shape and keep fit. Jazz - These classes offer children from the age of 6 an opportunity to study modern dance without the structure of a syllabus. Starting with a warm up and limbering,
followed by combinations of fast thinking steps, pupils are encouraged to explore all aspects of modern dance. Hip Hop -
This is a cultural movement that emerged in the 1970's and covers a style of music, dance, dress and behaviour. In Hip Hop dance, terms such as Breakin', Top
Rocking, Locking, Popping and Floor Rocking are often used. Now in mainstream dance, Hip Hop is being influenced further through fusions with other dance styles, eg.
contemporary dance. At Adagio, Mr Joe incorporates all of the above in her classes, making them great fun and accessible to all. Click here for class timetables. When finished, use 'back' button to return to website. |
