Why consider the Dance Academy?


Open to students in Grades 7-12, the Dance Academy will help student athletes learn and improve on advanced individual skills and tactics, while developing a lifestyle on and off the floor that emphasizes building character through achieving both athletic and scholastic success. Purposeful practices led by highly trained staff, strength and conditioning designed to maximize physical attributes, and a focus on leadership will all position the student athlete to achieve their individual goals.

Technical development focuses on formal dance training in various styles of dance:

  • Jazz
  • Ballet
  • Contemporary/Modern
  • Lyrical
  • Cultural
  • Hip Hop

Students will also learn the foundations of dance, the creative process, nutrition for dancers, dance injury awareness and prevention, as well as special training in the areas of:

  • Flexibility
  • Strengthening
  • Balance
  • Stretching
  • Alignment
  • Elements of space, shape, time and energy 
  • Elements of dance performance and choreography
