Other Offerings

Our new program for toddlers age 13-22 months.  Utilizing parachutes, balls, obstacle courses, climbing, jumping, and song, our youngest children will play while developing gross and fine motor skills.

Is back!  Similar to our Preschool I program with the helping hands of a parent.

Our Preschool I program is designed to encourage a child’s natural movement and muscle development through music, creative songs and dance.  Though mostly ballet, in January dancers in PSI will also begin tap.

These classes provide the young dancer with an excellent
Kindercombo foundation that includes ballet and tap.



 

Because it is the foundation of all dance forms, we strongly encourage students to study ballet.  Body placement and flexibility are taught and developed though barre, center, and allegro work.  Our leveling system includes Pre-Ballet, Elementary Ballet I-V, Intermediate Ballet I-V, and Advanced Ballet.  Once dancers advance to the intermediate level, they are required to take a minimum of two classes per week.

Point work is offered to students by teacher recommendation.  Students must have a minimum of three years of ballet and at least 11 years old (12 is better).  Students participating in pointe classes must also take two ballet classes.

These classes expose students to various styles of Jazz dance including lyrical, hip-hop, and traditional.  Like tap, various levels of classes are available for children and teens.

The many styles of tap dance are explored in these classes.  Classes for children and teens are available in levels from Tap I though V, as well as intermediate and advanced levels.

Based on our students’ interests and ability levels, other class offerings of our studio may include, Tumble, Hip-Hop (ages 9+) and Modern (must be recommended).  For Intro to Modern, students must have completed Pre-Ballet I and Pre-Ballet II.

 




MHDC has been supporting the NHMAW foundation for 11 years. In that time, through an annual performance done in February, the MHDC teams have granted 15 wishes for children who suffer from life threatening illnesses. A $1700 donation was also made in memory of one the studio's young dancers.  In total MHDC has made donations in excess of $70,000. This event continues to be an important part of MHDC's mission and calendar.
