Pop Styles
Fun, upbeat classes that incorporate isolation movements, progressions across the floor, and complex choreography. Our Pop Styles dance classes are inspired by Hip Hop dance culture, pop culture, and other dance genres, set to age-appropriate pop music. Strength and flexibility also are important components of each class. And, most importantly, dancers develop confidence as they express themselves while creating their own, personal movement and style

Attire Guidelines:
Attire: Please wear shoes to class (or bare feet as specified). Tights or socks without shoes are too slippery to dance safely. Please wear clothes that fit so teachers can see alignment and dancers are not distracted by their attire. Please wear shorts that come mid-thigh length. If shorter, please wear tights underneath. If wearing midriffs, please wear a leotard underneath. Students may also need athletic undergarments (e.g., sports bra, dance belt).
Hair: Please put long hair up in a ponytail, bun or hairstyle that allows for movement safely. Please pull short hair away from the face with barrettes or a headband. Teachers and staff members are happy to show dancers and caregivers how to put hair up for class.
Jewelry: Please leave jewelry at home. Large objects (hoop earrings, heavy bracelets) can be distracting and potentially dangerous when moving near classmates.
Fragrances/Lotions: Out of consideration for others and for the care of our floors, please avoid heavily scented products (body oil, lotion, perfume, etc). Deodorant or antiperspirant is encouraged.
Gum is not allowed inside the classroom. Please be sure to dispose of it before entering the studio.
Pop Styles: Any T-shirt or tank top (midriffs covered) and athletic pants (leggings, joggers, sweatpants). Shorts shorter than mid-thigh length must be worn over tights to protect from floor burns. Clean shoes designated for indoor use only are required to keep our floors clean and free from dirt.
