Class Descriptions
With classes in Ballet, Ballroom, Competition Clogging, Recreation Clogging, Hip Hop, Jazz / Lyrical and Tumbling, there is something for everyone!
Ballet
Starz Unlimited offers Ballet classes for ages 3 and up.
Ballet provides the technical foundation and quality of movement which supports most genres of dance. Ballet training is essential for any dancer who wants to excel in jazz and contemporary styles as the technique and vocabulary for these disciplines come from ballet.
Pre-ballet and Ballet 1 classes focus on capturing a dancer's natural enthusiasm for movement and dance while learning the basic Ballet positions. As students mature, they transition into the more serious study of proper technique and further their poise, discipline, confidence and artistic development as dancers. Pointe classes available with instructor approval.
Ballroom
The focus of Starz Unlimited’s Ballroom Classes is to provide each dancer with a foundation in ballroom patterns, partnering skills and dance technique (posture, frame, position, footwork and styling).
Students learn two to three different dance styles each year such as Waltz, Cha Cha, Foxtrot, Swing, Nightclub Two-step, or Tango While Registering with a partner is preferred, but not required.
Clogging
Hip Hop
Hip-hop dance refers to street dance styles primarily performed to hip-hop music or that have evolved as part of hip-hop culture. It includes a wide range of styles primarily breaking which was created in the 1970s and made popular by dance crews in the United States.
Clogging is a percussive style dance traditionally danced to Bluegrass music.The double tap on the shoes adds extra sound and rhythm to footwork.
Now dancing to high-energy-modern-day music, the style mixes Irish Step, Tap, Hip Hop and pretty much anything in between! It’s danced at double time and has the power of Irish step, and the detail in timing as Tap but with a much more urban feel.
