Do you love theatre dance? If so, this class is for you. Since multiple dance styles are often woven together to create interesting numbers for musical theatre, you will be developing techniques in both tap dance and jazz dance. We will also be increasing your flexibility, strength, and performance techniques to learn how to portray an interesting character through dance that goes beyond just technical dancing. Students will prepare a medley of choreographed songs from Frozen to perform ON STAGE for family and friends to enjoy!
