Ballet

Modern
Modern Jazz is fun. You will learn to develop many different movements reaching to a broad choice of varying rhythms and musical styles. Classes are structured to begin to prepare the physical strength and flexibility required to demonstrate emotion through interpretation of any musical genre.
One minute you may be dancing to the rhythm of a drum, the next to a funky jazz style. You may explore contrast between expansion and relaxation or learn to isolate in a slick stylish mood. Whatever the atmosphere of the class, it will be a wonderful opportunity to react and interact with other members and really dance to express your feelings.

Styles Class
This is an open dance class that anyone can participate in. In this class you are taught the basics of different street dance styles, for example locking, house, Afro and much more.
Street Class
To Street dance refers to dance styles – regardless of country of origin – that evolved outside of dance studios in any available open space, such as streets, dance parties, block parties, parks, school yards, raves, and nightclubs.
Street is improvisational and social in nature, encouraging interaction and contact with spectators and other dancers. These dances are a part of the vernacular culture of the geographical area that they come from.
Adult Heels
This class is an adult class that allows adults to learn street dance and commercial whilst wearing heels. The class is very fun and has amazing vibes as everyone is always supporting each other no matter their ability or age.
Private Lesson
Private lessons are very popular at Nadia Jane Performing Arts as they allow each dancer to be critiqued by their dance teacher. By booking in a private lesson the teacher is mainly focused on the one student helping them improve at dance.
Cheer/Majorette
Cheerleading combines a variety of dynamic performance skills. High-energy moves – including tricks and stunts, plus motivational cheers and chants – make this a vibrant and lively dance style.
Musical Theatre
Musical theatre is a form of theatrical performance that combines songs, spoken dialogue, acting and dance. The story and emotional content of a musical – humour, pathos, love, anger – are communicated through words, music, movement and technical aspects of the entertainment as an integrated whole.
