Footlights Dance Studio in Deagon is a local Contemporary Dance club that offers a wide range of dance classes for all ages. Whether you're a young child looking to embark on a magical journey through the Creative Kids program or an older student wanting to explore different dance styles like ballet, jazz, tap, or acrobatics, Footlights Dance Studio has something for everyone.
For the little ones, the Creative Kids program takes children on an exciting adventure filled with music, props, and dancing. Not only does it bring joy, but it also helps develop important skills such as coordination, motor skills, rhythm, musicality, confidence, discipline, and cooperation. With three levels of advancement, children can progress at their own pace and grow in self-confidence.
Prep Dance, designed for children in Prep at school, offers a fun combination of ballet, jazz, and tap. It's a great way to introduce them to various dance styles and get a taste of what's to come as they get older. Plus, they only need ballet shoes for this class!
If ballet is your passion, Footlights Dance Studio also offers the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) Classical Syllabus. This internationally recognised ballet syllabus provides students with a comprehensive exploration of classical ballet technique, musicality, mime, character, and lyrical movement. Optional yearly examinations are available, and for students in Grade 4 onwards, body conditioning classes are compulsory to ensure they have the necessary strength and flexibility for this beautiful dance style.
But it's not just about ballet at Footlights Dance Studio. Students can also take classes in Jazz, Tap, Contemporary, Commercial Dance, Musical Theatre, and Acrobatics. Jazz is an energetic and dynamic style performed to popular music, while tap allows students to explore coordination, musicality, timing, and rhythm by creating their own sounds. Contemporary dance focuses on emotional, fluid, and grounded movements, while commercial dance combines elements of hip hop and jazz seen in concerts, shows, music videos, movies, and commercials. Musical Theatre classes allow students to delve into the world of musicals, studying popular shows at each level. And for those who love gymnastics and partner work, Acrobatics is a great way to build strength, confidence, and teamwork skills.
