Barre (All levels):

Barre was created in 1959 by a ballet dancer named Lotte Berk after injuring her back.  Berk combined ballet movements with rehabilitative therapy to form a few methods of exercise.  Barre-sculpt focuses on low-impact movements oscillates between building up heat using strength exercises and lengthening the muscles using dynamic stretching movements inspired from ballet, dance, yoga and pilates foundations. This is an all-levels class, we encourage students to take this class at least 6-8 weeks to get into the swing of exercise combos. This class is great for students who need low-impact movements. Arrive early to save your seat at the mat.

Hip Hop (Beg/Int):

Hip-Hop is an artistic and cultural movement that started in the 1970s in The Bronx of New York City by Black and Latiné youth who expressed joy through Hip-Hop during a time of oppression. Hip-Hop dance consists of Breaking (commercially known as Breakdancing) and Hip-Hop Party Moves (e.g., Bart Simpson, Biz Markie, Roger Rabbit, Running Man). In this class students will focus on more challenging dance combos that will help with choreography, movement quality and retention. This course is a prerequisite requirement for many of our intermediate and intermediate/advanced classes. Students in this class should have a basic understanding of hip hop terminology, movement and grooves.
