Contemporary: Run by Christopher Kindo of Dans! Dans! Dans! Fame, this class does not focus on a specific contemporary dance technique but is a collection of methods developed from modern and post-modern dance and can take many forms.
What to wear: comfortable active wear
Age level: 12+ to Adult
Adult Ballet: Previous ballet experience is required. This class is aimed at ex-dancers, dance students and women who want to keep in shape. It promotes toning, suppleness and other health benefits. Classes run throughout the year. Enrolment is ongoing.
What to wear: preferably leotards and tights, or fitted dance gear which will help the teacher to see body formation and technique. Ballet shoes can be bought from Dance for All.
Age level: 16+ to Adult
Hip Hop: Hip Hop generally uses moves called breaking, locking and popping. This is a basic and fun class with no specific technique. To some the dance form is entertaining and for others it is a lifestyle. Either way, it is an awesome way of getting fit!
What to wear: comfortable active wear.
Age level: classes are split into age groups.
Hip Hop Aerobics: This is a fun fitness class run by Allison Hendricks. The Hip Hop Aerobics class has been designed specifically for ladies and is a high cardio workout dance with a hip hop feel.
What to wear: Comfortable active wear and takkies.
Age level: 16+
Nia Technique: This class is run by Gill Warren-Brown and is a great mix of dance and martial arts. Because the technique uses moves that are natural to the body, you can do Nia whatever your age, fitness level or body type. Again - have fun while getting fit!
What to wear: Nia is done barefoot, wearing comfortable active wear.
Age level: All
