Dance2Fit
High impact dance infused cardio while working upper and lower body muscles along with abs and sculpting.
Musical Theatre
Super fun class focusing on various musicals. A variety of dance will be incorporated while teaching students to explore their “inner performer”. This is a great class to expand dance skills while focusing on stage presence.
Hip Hop
A fun dance style which combines street-funk, jazz and street dancing. This is often seen on TV shows and music videos. This is a fun and active dance style for all learners!
Clogging
Clogging is a form of percussive dance which evolved in the Appalachian Mountains but has spread throughout the US and the world. Clogging blends Canadian step dancing, Irish step dancing and tap steps to create rhythms that emphasize the downbeat of the music. The shoes worn are similar to tap but have a double tap which makes for a different (louder) sound. Overall, this is a high energy form of dance that is extremely fun!
Hip Hop/Clogging Combo
This class is designed to be an introduction of both styles of dance to students. Students will learn basic skills while in a fun upbeat environment.
Acapella/Traditional Clogging
This combination clogging class builds on the skills learned during the weekly clogging class but digs deeper into the acapella and traditional skillset. This class is taken in addition to the weekly class and offers the dancers the opportunity to compete in two more categories at competition.
All Star Clogging
Dedication and motivation defines the All Star Clogging program. This is a class that focuses on competition clogging only. This class is for students who are interested in competing more than once a year and want to compete at larger competitions. This class is taken IN ADDITION TO the weekly clogging class and acapella/traditional class. This team will be traveling to the World of Clogging Championships in Ohio this upcoming May!
Performance Team Clogging
This is for dancers who enjoy performing and want to expand their performance skills. This team will be performing at local venues throughout the year and representing Northern Explosion in the community. Students in this class will receive their Performance Team uniform at NO COST to them. This is a yearlong commitment.
Lyrical
Stresses the importance of technique as well as the ability to perform with emotional execution. This style draws on all forms of dance but combines with music to express a feeling or tell a story.
Pom
Fun upbeat mix of hip hop/jazz/lyrical dance styles as well technical work such as leaps, turns, kicks, splits and jumps all while using pompoms.
