Dance

The Arts Guild Dance Program offers classes at progressive levels in ballet, ballroom, folk, jazz, modern, tap and Mexican Folklorico. All in a creative, safe, and non-competitive environment for all ages.

DANCE CLASSES AND WORKSHOPS
SPRING 2013

BALLET

Rooted in classical French traditions, ballet is the study of an art form that builds discipline, strength, elegance, and grace.

BALLROOM DANCE

Don't know how to Salsa, Foxtrot, Swing, or Waltz? Don't ever be a wallflower again!

FOLK DANCE

Expand your knowledge of the world by learning different dances from around the globe. Please note that Folk Dance runs in a 12-week session (Dec. through March) and an 8-week session (April & May) because it is jointly offered with the Northfield Senior Center. The following dates are not included in the 12-week price or 8-week prices: Dec. 28, Jan.4, March 29, May 24, and May 31, 2013. The Drop-in rate will be charged for those classes.

TAP

Jazz is a free, open dance form, which mixes the techniques of ballet or modern dance with the rhythmic quality of tap.

MEXICAN FOLKLORICO

This class, for boys and girls, teaches traditional Mexican dances that use sharp rhythmic heel stomping and interesting visual patterns with colorful costumes. This class is taught in español and English!

MODERN

Modern dance is an art form using its own unique technique, at times drawing from ballet, and often incorporating stretches and other work on the floor.

DANCE PERFORMANCE WORKSHOP

The Arts Guild Dance Program is proud to announce a fourth year of the popular Dance Theater Company.
