Ballet

The Ballet program at Infinity Dance Company fosters musicality, body awareness and movement potential in a format that encourages individual artistry. The knowledge gained in these classes prepares the student for the attention to detail required in the study of formal ballet training.​​

Tap

Tap is an exciting rhythmic exercise and dance form which is enjoyable to both kids and adults. Rooted in African-American History, tap offers a variety of styles and techniques. Classes stress the basics of tap and allow dancers to build into combinations which are fun to watch and delightful to hear.

Jazz

Jazz combines many styles and techniques from ethnic and contemporary dance, to ballet. Musical theatre with an emphasis on Theater Jazz will also be covered. The first half of class consists of exercises which stretch and tone muscles and develop support for proper stress-free alignment of the skeletal structure. Using jazz, soul, R&B, ethnic and pop music, jazz classes are a great workout and a fun way to release tension.

Contemporary

Contemporary is a fusion of ballet, modern, and jazz technique that incorporates artistry and improvisation to create unconventional shapes, dynamics, and musicality.

 This class concentrates on developing strength and flexibility, basic Jazz/Contemporary movements, and basic technique such as plies, tendús, and releves.

Acrobatic Arts

Acrobatic Arts is a style of dance that combines classical dance technique with precision acrobatic  elements such as rolls, backbends, limbers, walkovers, back handsprings, and aerials. It is defined by its athletic character, its unique choreography, which seamlessly blends dance and acrobatics, and its use of acrobatics in a dance context.

Pointe

Pointe work brings the experienced dancer to the next level, raising them to the very tips of their toes! Students who have developed a solid foundation of dance ability are able to start learning this skill under the guidance of experienced teachers. Talk to us about when your child will be ready to dance on pointe.
