SCHOOL AGED AND ABOVE

We have classes for every level in a range of styles

For students who are attending primary school, high school, or have even finished schooling altogether, we have so many class options! For those wanting to take dance and cheer more seriously, we have competitive teams for Hip Hop, Pom, Jazz, Lyrical, and Cheer. For those who are not after the extra commitment but still love to dance and cheer, we have plenty of recreational classes to choose from.

 

Most of these classes participate in our mid-year and end-of-year concerts or show-offs. Students still get the fun of learning routines each week and developing their dance and cheer abilities in a fun and supportive environment. We love to welcome everyone to our tribe even if you have had no experience at all. It’s never too late to learn to dance or cheer! 

Acro

In acro classes, students work on their flexibility and learn acrobatic skills that can be incorporated into dance routines. Some of these skills include chin stands, cartwheels, walkovers, and aerials.

Ballet

Ballet is the foundation of dance and is the most technical class a dancer can participate in. We highly recommend ballet classes for those who wish to take their dance more seriously. In our ballet classes, students work on posture, breathing, balance, strength, flexibility, weight transference, and general ballet technique. The strength and control learned in these classes are an incredibly valuable asset to any dance style.

Cecchetti Ballet Exam Class

At Vibe Studios, we learn the Cecchetti syllabus. Cecchetti is an internationally recognised system of ballet training.

In these classes, students are taught set exercises that are aimed at developing their ballet technique. Students who are ready have the option of performing these exercises in front of a Cecchetti examiner at the Ministry of Dance. They receive a report that is written up by the examiner with a mark, as well as a certificate.

Contemporary/Lyrical

This style combines the fluidity of jazz with the disciplined techniques of ballet. This dance style tends to focus on storytelling through emotions.

Shooting Stars Lyrical - Competition

Shooting Stars is our elite dance program that is for students who want to take dance more seriously. To become a member of a Shooting Stars team, students must audition and be accepted. Click here to find out more.

Jazz

Our jazz classes involve quick movements that match the fast-paced and popular songs that we love. In these classes, students work on technique, flexibility, and performance. You can find things like high kicks, turns, shimmies and, of course, jazz hands! 

Jazz Technique

In our jazz technique classes, we break down each skill on a more detailed level. This is where students can expect to learn all of the necessary skills to perform their competition routines to a high standard.

Pointe

Pointe is traditional ballet. This class involves dancing in pointe shoes on the tips of fully extended feet. To take part in this class, dancers must have great ballet experience and must also see and gain approval from a physio and a podiatrist.

Pre-Pointe

This class is for students who want to work towards dancing on pointe but are not quite ready yet. Students work on exercises that are aimed at strengthening and building upon their technique.

SFD Jazz Exam Classes

At Vibe Studios, we offer the Southern Federation of Dance syllabus in the style of jazz. In these classes, students are taught set exercises that are aimed at developing their jazz technique. Students who are ready have the option of performing these exercises in front of an SFD examiner who comes to Vibe Studios. They receive a report that is written up by the examiner with a mark, as well as a certificate and a badge.

Tap

In these classes, students use the sounds of their tap shoes by striking the floor as a form of percussion. One of the benefits of participating in tap classes is learning to understand timing and rhythm. This is of benefit to all other styles of dance.

All Abilities

We are very proud to offer special abilities dance classes to both children and adults. At Vibe Studios, we believe that everyone deserves to love dance. Our All Ability dance lessons are very interactive. We work to enhance the gross and fine motor skills of all participants whilst having lots of fun at the same time.

Break

Break dancing, also referred to as b-boying/

b-girling, is an athletic style of street dance. It is typically set to hip hop music and consists mainly of four kinds of movement: toprock (foot movement performed from a standing position), downrock (floor-based footwork), power moves (relying on speed, momentum, and acrobatic elements), and freezes (halting all body motion). 

Cheer

This is a fast-paced class that involves a lot of teamwork. The elements of cheerleading include stunting, tumbling, jumps, pyramids, and dance. You can expect to learn a little bit of everything in our cheer classes.

Cheer - Competition

For those who want to take their cheerleading more seriously, we have cheer troupes that students must audition for and be accepted into. Click here to find out more.

Hip Hop

Hip hop is a street dance that is primarily performed to hip hop music. The commercialisation of hip hop means that it can now be seen in film clips by music artists such as Chris Brown and Jason Derulo. Though hip hop is established in entertainment, it maintains a strong presence in urban neighborhoods which has led to the creation of street dance derivatives like Baltimore, jerkin', krumping, and c-walking. In our hip hop classes, students are taught a range of different elements to form an urban-focused routine.

Hip Hop - Competition

For those who want to take their hip hop more seriously, we have hip hop troupes that students must audition for and be accepted into. Click here to find out more. 

Musical Theatre

This is a very fun class that combines elements of singing, acting and dancing. In these classes, students practice these skills to soundtracks from popular musicals such as 'Wicked', 'Matilda' and 'Aladdin'. 

Pom

Pom is a very technical dance style that focuses heavily on strength to create striking visuals. Of course, these visuals are created with pom poms.
