CLASSES:

Tumble ‘N Dance registration must be completed by visiting the studio you wish to attend. At Tumble ‘N Dance, we like to meet each parent and personally talk with them concerning their child’s age, experience/ability level, class preferences, and their family’s schedule. Therefore, we don’t post our class schedules on the website, only the days and time range that we offer classes. By talking with parents in person, Tumble ‘N Dance can make the best class placement for your child. Please contact the Stockbridge or Locust Grove studio for class offerings and availability for that location.
 

Tumble ‘N Dance Class Descriptions

Ballet: The mother of all dance. Ballet is the technical base for all other dance forms. Terminology, placement and movement will be taught through exercises at barre, centre, and across the floor in a developmentally appropriate manner. Students wear pink flat ballet shoes to class.

Tap: Style of dance using special shoes for making music with your feet.  Tap teaches rhythm, coordination, and musicality. Students wear flat tan tap shoes. 

Jazz: Fun, upbeat style of dance.  The basics of jazz dance stem from ballet.  Jazz incorporates turns, kicks, and leaps with current dance moves and contemporary music. Students MUST take ballet while enrolled in jazz class. Students wear tan jazz gore boots.
Pre-Jazz – ages 4 ½-6              Jazz – ages 6 and up

Hip Hop: Funky style of dance widely seen in music videos.  Hip Hop is fun, energetic and good exercise.  Students must be at least 6 years old and wear dance sneakers to class. 

Lyrical: Contemporary style of dance that is expressive and interpretive, with strong foundations in ballet.  Dancers will utilize muscle control, strength, and emotion to perform this style of dance.  Students must be 8 years old with at least 2-3 years of ballet training.  Students take class barefoot or wear foot undeez or foot mittens.

Musical Theatre/Drama: Creative class that teaches a bit of broadway-style dance in addition to singing and acting.  Students participate in our annual Christmas Program and perform a play/musical to culminate a year of instruction.  Students must be at least 5 years old to take the class.

Gymnastics/Tumbling: Class consists primarily of floor tumbling in addition to stretching and conditioning exercises to increase flexibility and strength.  Students will work on a floor balance beam and are eligible to participate in our annual Christmas Program and Spring Recital as well.

Acro-Contortion: Class is designed to progressively teach the art of contortion in addition to acrobatic skills.  The class is similar to rhythmic gymnastics.  Students will increase flexibility, muscle control and fluidity of movement to create unique poses and tumbling skills. Class is reserved for serious gymnastics students ages 8 and up.

Cheerleading Gymnastics: Skill-based class open to students ages 6 and up who are already cheerleaders or interested in becoming cheerleaders.  Students will be taught tumbling, jump and motion technique to increase the skills they may already have.  Cheer-Gym is a non-performing class, which means they don’t participate in our two annual performances.

Mom & Tot: Class designed specifically for kids ages 18 months –2 ½.  One parent participates with their child.  Students will learn turn-taking skills, basic rhythm, musicality, and coordination through age-appropriate dance and gymnastics activities.  We even use fun props and music!  Mom & Tot is a non-performing class.
 

Adult Classes: Students ages 16 and up may take adult classes.  Classes offered to adults vary each season.  Adults with or without children enrolled at Tumble ‘N Dance are invited to take classes.  Participants pay by the class.

  Tumble 'N Dance Closing Dates for the 2010-11 Season 
Below are the dates Tumble 'N Dance will be closed next season.  Our closings are similar to the Henry County Schools' Calendar; however they're not exactly the same.  We will NOT close for all Teacher Workdays. Tumble 'N Dance closes during the weeks of the school holidays so that families can take vacations and breaks together.  These are scheduled Tumble 'N Dance holidays, therefore tuition will not be pro-rated nor will make-up classes be scheduled for these announced holidays.  Tuition is based on each class meeting a minimum of 32 times per season.  Most classes will meet 32-35 times per season.  This allows for unexpected closures due to weather and/or emergencies. 
July 4: Independence Day
 September 6: Labor Day
 September 12-19: Fall Break; Henry County Schools Closed  
November 21-27: Thanksgiving Break; Henry County Schools Closed
