Pilates
Classical Matwork / Body Conditioning. |
The Beauty of the Pilates method is that it lends itself to physical fitness for all ages.
All classes are choreographed for the individual, the Pilates method applies to all levels of strength and fitness.
The aim of the Pilates classical matwork exercises is to stretch and balance the body, stretching muscles out to create sleakness rather than bulk.

Spanish Dance (Flamenco) |
Spanish Dance has light and graceful arm movements that contrast the reverbeating steps as feet drill into the floor with a strong intensity.
The dancer often stands motionless for the first few moments absorbing the strums of the classical guitar, the clapping and then launching into a flamenco dance incorporating passion, tension and emotion.

Modern Dance |
Modern Dance is structured to take your existing use of dance further filled with energy
and passion.
Students enjoy learning different dance styles based on Matt Mattox technique incorporating funky slick moves and lines.
Modern Dance is an integral part of our programme reflecting the commercial style
used for Professional work encouraging students to grow technically and creatively.

Contemporary Dance |
Contemporary Dance is a style of expressive dance that combines elements of several dance genres including Classical ballet, Modern Jazz and Lyrical. Contemporary dancers strive to connect the mind and the body through fluid dance movements. Contemporary dance stresses versatility and improvisation, unlike the strict, structured nature of ballet. Contemporary dancers focus on floorwork, using gravity to pull down to the floor.
This dance genre is often danced in bare feet. Contemporary dance can be performed to many different styles of music.
