Acrobatics

Modern Dance

K-Pop / Hip Hop

ACROBATICS

AcroDance is a beautiful fusion of the artistic motion of dance and the athleticism of acrobatics. It is not the same as gymnastics as it does not include the various apparatus such as balance beams and uneven bars used in gymnastics training. Rather, acrobatics is taught to be performed in conjunction with various dance techniques on a hard, flat surface.

Acrobatic skills include flexibility, strength, limbering, balancing, contortion and tumbling. Think of acrobatics as the “dance cousin” of gymnastics.

Dansation follows the Canadian Acrobatic Arts method which is a progression-based syllabus aimed at training participants in a way that is both safe and technically correct.

Acrobatic performances are often evident in the shows by Cirque du Soleil. With endorsements from over 1000 dance teachers worldwide, physiotherapists, Cirque Du Soleil acrobats, and more, Acrobatic Arts is universally recognised as one of the best programs for AcroDance.

MODERN DANCE

Modern dance is an expressive form of dance that began as a rebellion from ballet in the early 20th century. Within a modern class, dancers learn various techniques and ways of moving: from the sharp, upbeat and funky styles of jazz to the softer, more fluid and elegant movements of lyrical.

Modern dance is a fusion of many different dance styles, types of music and tempos – there truly is something for everyone within this style. One of the main benefits of modern dance is that it cultivates versatile dancers.

Classes improve a dancer’s sense of performance, flexibility, rhythm, coordination and style. Modern dance is a great way to express yourself artistically, exercise and have fun.

BALLET

This beautiful genre of dance was invented by King Louis XIV to be performed at a royal wedding during this time. Since its beginnings, ballet has evolved and progressed and gained mass popularity around the world. Ballet is an incredibly elegant form of dance which follows seven main principles:

– Posture & balance
– Turn out
– Moving correctly
– Classical technique
– Transferring weight
– Coordination

Though ballet is a disciplined style of dance, lots of fun can be had in a ballet class and with a variety of benefits such as improved posture and concentration, it is no wonder that this is one of the most popular dance genres around. Not only this, but almost all dance genres performed today have stemmed from classical ballet and thus incorporating a ballet class into your dance training can yield fantastic improvements in your technique within other areas of dance.

K-POP / HIP HOP

K-Pop and Hip Hop dance classes bring high energy, great music, and expressive movement to the studio. K-Pop features the sharp, stylized choreography seen in popular Korean music videos, while Hip Hop focuses on rhythm, groove, and freestyle-inspired moves rooted in urban dance culture.

These styles are especially popular because they’re fun, current, and connected to the music today’s kids and teens already love. Each class gives students a chance to move with confidence and personality.

Our K-Pop and Hip Hop classes are designed for ages 10+ and are perfect for recreational dancers who just want to have fun. No pressure—just a supportive space to learn great choreography, build confidence, and enjoy dancing with friends.
