Private Lessons

In private lessons, the dancer and their coach engage in one-on-one training sessions. The coach takes into consideration the demands and needs of the dancer when planning these individualized lessons. With dedicated time and focus, free from external interruptions or distractions, the coach is excited to cater to the dancer's unique learning preferences and style.

Goals of Private Lessons:

#1

Accelerate skill development and explore new techniques 

#4

Improve overall strength and flexibility 

#2

Enhance skill development by targeting areas for improvement

#5

Cultivate confidence while enhancing overall self-assurance

#3

Refine, enhance and magnify the strengths of the dancer

#6

Encourage Dancers to Step Out of Their Comfort Zones and Embrace New Challenges

Types of Private Lessons

Technical Training

Technical training is ideal for individuals focused on refining technique, enhancing skills, improving flexibility, and building endurance. During technical training sessions, we prioritize the fundamental aspects of dance without incorporating choreography, allowing dancers to concentrate solely on developing essential skills necessary for their growth and improvement.

Specialty Routines

Specialty routines involve supplementary dance forms like solos, duets, and trios. These private lessons cater to individuals who have expressed interest and received approval to perform or compete in such routines during the season. While some technical training may be integrated, mainly focusing on the requisite skills, the primary emphasis remains on choreography refinement.
