BALLET – at Madison Ballet Academy, ballet is a requirement for all students over the age of ten. We recognize classical ballet as the most important field of study in dance. Ballet is an art, to be taken seriously and performed as taught. Grace, correct body alignment, poise, strength and flexibility are learned through the study of ballet. Ballet also greatly aids any dancer in all studies of dance including Jazz, Tap and Hip-Hop.
POINTE – Because Madison Ballet Academy stresses the importance of ballet, we offer pointe classes for students who meet the age and technical requirements. (Class assignment is determined by the ballet teacher only).
LYRICAL – a form of Modern dance, this style highlights connection between greater elements and the body. This art teaches students to utilize all parts of their personal space in connection to the space around them. Modern dance teaches the student to move with abandon and great power. Lyrical is very similar to ballet as it resembles movements which requires body control flow and grace while modern dance requires control and rigid body positions.
JAZZ- Fast, rhythm-like movement that allows dancers to learn to count music while moving to heart-pumping music. Jazz is whimsical, fast, up-beat, and passionate. Many elements of Jazz at the Ballet Academy will also include BROADWAY Theatre styles.
TAP– Madison Ballet Academy teaches all styles of tap. Tap work will give students a better sense of rhythm, stamina and enhance their performance skills.
PRESCHOOLERS: Madison Ballet Academy's youngest dancers can enjoy a fun, well structured program designed just for their age. The class is designed to fit with the ability and attention span of a preschooler. Children learn the basics in ballet, tap, creative movement, and tumbling. Special emphasis is placed on brain power, structured after the "The Brain Dance" class (developed by Ann Green Gilbert, Seattle, WA, a trained professional in movement patterns). Children learn through movement, and work on coordination, flexibility, and direction.
Special Needs Ballet- We offer classes for people who have special needs. This class works to improve flexibility and coordination, and benefits to improve mood, reduce stress, and increase alertness and concentration.
