Open Class Schedule
(go there now)
Our class system is set up so that there is no registration or membership fee. Classes are ongoing, meaning that a student can start at any time. A student should start at a level appropriate to him or her. Progression to the next level is at the discretion of the student and/or the instructor. If you are unsure of your level, for your first class, we suggest that you start one level lower than the level at which you think you might be.
Class Levels
* Basics or Fundamentals classes assume no prior dance experience. In this level, one is taught the rudiments of dance, including terminology and body positions.* Jazz 1 is equivalent to a beginner level and assumes some prior dance experience.
* Jazz 2 is low intermediate.
* Jazz 3 is high intermediate or advanced.
* Theatre Dance is intermediate/advanced.
Note: because they are not technique classes, the following have no level designations: Hip Hop, Video Dance, Street Funk, Hip Hop Octane
* Workshops require advance registration.
Although we have no age restrictions on our classes, we encourage younger children to participate in our Children's Program or the Boston Youth Moves teen program.
Dress Codes
We have no particular dress code at this studio. We suggest that students wear tights, leotards, sweats, or any comfortable loose clothing in which they can move. Ballet slippers or jazz shoes are not required; bare feet or cotton socks are adequate. Some sort of aerobic footwear should be worn for the Hip Hop and Video Dance classes. Hard-soled street shoes can be worn by students beginning an “intro to tap” class.Fees & Policies
