Gain new skills and confidence through dance
AKA serves dancers of all ages, and is excited to introduce new adult dance classes in 2023. Whether you’re a seasoned dancer or brand new to the world of dance, we’ll help you take your skills to the next level!
-
Ballet is the artistic basis of all dance. It uses precise and formal steps and gestures. Dancers learn discipline, grace, and proper technique.
-
AKA Ballroom classes focus on Samba, Cha Cha & Rumba styles. Following the popularization of solo ballroom dancing, dancers will build skills and technique on their own. This will help prepare dancers to take on a ballroom dance partner later in their dance journey.
-
Jazz is an energetic style of dance. It often includes intricate movements and tricks like turns and jumps. Jazz teaches isolations (movements involving individual body parts), syncopation (rehearsed step patterns), and grounded movement. Musical Theatre Jazz takes jazz technique to the Broadway stage and teaches dancers how to act while dancing.
Whether you dance to dream, or dream to dance… we are here to help you take the leap!
A world-class space to reach new heights
AKA is excited to welcome you into our state of the art dance studio! This space is dedicated to helping dancers of all skill levels reach new heights. Whether you’re a lifelong dancer, or just beginning in your dance journey, this space is for you!
-
AKA’s dance studio is spacious, with two distinct dance studio rooms for classes and dance styles that require differently sized spaces. AKA offers a combined 1600 sq. ft. in which to make your dance dreams come true!
-
Both studios are equipped with professional-grade sprung flooring with marley surface. Our flooring is the same used by the American Ballet Theatre to ensure decreased stress on dancer’s joints. This helps prevent injury and supports your long-term health and safety.
-
A high-quality dance environment is critical to the success of our dancers. Both studios are equipped with large, lightweight, highly reflective mylar mirrors (rather than traditional glass mirrors) that reinforce learning technique while ensuring a safe environment for all dancers.
-
For certain classes, AKA dancers utilize specialty mats and acrobatics equipment to ensure a safe learning environment regardless of experience level.
