Our Classes - What to Expect
Tap (Beginner) – Learn rhythm, timing, and sound clarity through foundational steps like shuffles, flaps, and cramp rolls. Classes focus on musicality, coordination, and fun choreography that keeps dancers engaged and progressing.
Jazz (Beg) – Jazz classes at Spotlight are high-energy and expressive. Dancers work on isolations, kicks, turns, and jumps while developing strong technique and dynamic stage presence. Each class blends classic jazz with modern flair.
Ballet (Beg)– As the cornerstone of all dance styles, ballet helps students build grace, posture, flexibility, and discipline. Our ballet classes include barre work, center technique, and across-the-floor combinations that develop control and confidence.
Hip Hop (Beg) – These upbeat classes are packed with style and attitude. Students learn foundational grooves, footwork, and choreography set to popular music. Great for building rhythm, expression, and self-confidence.
