Lyrical Acro-Dance 9-12yrs

Lyrical dance is an expressive form of dance that blends various styles. It challenges choreographers and dancers to use movement to interpret music and express emotion. A lyrical dancer’s movements attempt to show the meaning/mood of the music. It is all built on a foundation of technique that includes turns, kicks, and jumps and is set to uplifting current music.
This open-level class will cater to a variety of previous dance experience. Dancers will develop coordination, musicality, and artistry.

Acrobatic training teaches flexibility, balance, strength, discipline, and concentration. Through safe and progressive training, a dancer will gain more flexibility and strength to achieve skills. The goal is to incorporate acro skills into a dance routine, therefore blending artistry with athleticism.
OPEN LEVEL: For this level, dancers do not need prior experience, as a variety of skills and progressions will be introduced to safely accommodate their current level.
DanceFusion is an Acrobatic Arts Certified Studio.
