Fundamental Classes

Fundamental classes at Natural State Dance Company are like no other! We believe that technique is the base for everything else. In our fundamental classes, dancers will focus on improving their technique in various genres, including ballet, jazz, tap, contemporary, lyrical, and musical theater. During each class, dancers will learn new terminology, execute dance exercises in the designated genre, work on new combinations of each style, learn dance history, work on stretching and conditioning for dance, and more. 

Dancers aged 10 and older can enroll in fundamental classes. Prior dance experience is recommended for our fundamental program. Fundamental classes take place on two days a week. Each class ranges in length from 30 minutes to 1 hour. 

Our fundamental classes do not perform a routine at recital. However, an informal studio viewing will be scheduled.
