Learn More About Our Junior Program Dance Classes
Our Foundation Class is structured specifically for children who have started prep-school and up to 7 years of age.
Whilst our Cubz Programs (for our little ones) focusses on building skills around movement, rhythm, balance and much more, our Foundation Classes take our students development to the next level. There's now much more focus on learning specific dance styles.
The Foundation classes begin the journey into Tap, Ballet and Jazz lessons that are designed to build the unique set of skills that each style brings.
In our tap dance classes for juniors, we focus on introducing them to the basics of rhythm, coordination, and musicality through fun and engaging movements. Kids learn how to create rhythmic sounds using their feet by tapping, shuffling, and stomping, all while improving their balance and motor skills. The joy of tap for children comes from the instant feedback they get from the sounds they produce, helping them connect movement to music in a playful way.
Children also develop body awareness and timing as they learn simple, foundational steps. Tap dance fosters creativity and self-expression, allowing kids to explore movement and sound while working together in a group setting. These classes are designed to be energetic and fun, with a strong emphasis on building confidence, coordination, and a love for dance!
In ballet classes for young children, the focus is on building foundational skills in movement, posture, and coordination while introducing them to the elegance and discipline of ballet.
Kids learn basic positions and movements like pliés, tendus, and jumps, which help improve their balance, flexibility, and strength. The structured nature of ballet encourages focus and attention to detail, but the lessons are kept light and fun, incorporating playful exercises to engage young dancers.
Ballet also helps children develop body awareness and grace as they practice flowing movements and learn to control their bodies. Through imaginative themes, music, and storytelling, young dancers are introduced to the expressive side of ballet, allowing them to explore emotions and creativity while learning. These classes aim to build confidence, discipline, and a strong sense of rhythm, all while fostering a love for dance in a fun and supportive environment.
Set to lively music, our jazz dance classes are all about energy, rhythm, and self-expression! Young dancers explore basic jazz techniques like kicks, leaps, and turns, set to upbeat music and dynamic choreography.
These classes encourage creativity and confidence, helping kids develop coordination, timing, and physical fitness in a fun, supportive environment. With playful steps, rhythmic patterns, and a mix of flowing and sharp movements, jazz dance is an exciting way for children to build strength, flexibility, and a love for dance.
One of our most popular classes, our Junior hip hop classes are the ultimate way for kids to channel their energy, express themselves, and build confidence. With high-energy music and exciting choreography, your child will learn foundational hip hop moves while exploring their unique style in a supportive, encouraging environment.
These classes are designed to keep kids engaged, active, and having fun, making them the perfect introduction to dance or a way to expand their skills.
Beyond the moves, hip hop dance offers incredible benefits. It helps children develop coordination, balance, and rhythm while boosting their fitness and focus. As they master choreography and explore freestyle, they’ll also build teamwork, resilience, and creativity—skills that extend beyond the dance floor.
Whether your child dreams of the stage or simply loves to groove, junior hip hop classes inspire confidence and foster a lifelong love for movement. Watch as they grow stronger, more self-assured, and ready to take on any beat!
