Grades 4–6

Calling all detectives! Inspired by classic mysteries like The Boxcar Children, Nancy Drew, The Hardy Boys, and Sherlock Holmes, explore the clues, suspects, and twists that make a great mystery. Use acting and improv to create curious characters, uncover secrets, and solve the case. Then work as an ensemble to devise an original mystery of your own!

Grades 7 and up

Step in time and take your tap skills to the next level! This intermediate class builds on tap fundamentals with an emphasis on rhythm, musicality, technique, and combinations. Strengthen your musical theatre dance skills and have some fun making music with your feet! Intermediate Tap is designed for dancers with at least a year of tap training who are comfortable with shuffles, flaps, paradiddles (also called paddle and rolls), cramprolls, and other foundational steps. We'll place a strong emphasis on musical theatre tap through basic time steps, combinations, and drills for more advanced skills. Dancers who already know Shirley Temples, time steps, and pullbacks will have opportunities to challenge themselves and advance their technique. Students with little to no tap training but strong experience in other dance styles, such as hip-hop, flamenco, or jazz, may also prefer Intermediate Tap. Tap shoes are encouraged if you have them, but are not required.
