Through movement to music, students will gain flexibility, core strength, coordination, posture, confidence and grace while also gaining a sense of rhythm and beat. Highly qualified instructors who encourage students through positive reinforcement teach all classes. Our instructors ensure the classes are fun while encouraging students to develop their own sense of creativity.
Preschool Programs
For preschool aged children we offer a variety of classes for children at the walking stage up to five years old. For those children just walking up to the age of three we offer a parent participation class called Musical Duos. We offer preschool fine arts program, ballet, and tap for children two and a half to five years old.
Teen Programs
We offer a variety of programs for teens: Tap, jazz, ballet, musical theater, and hip hop.
At BIDA we want to offer our students the highest
standard in dance instruction. This is why all our
ballet classes are taught by certified Royal Academy
of Dance instructors. Ballet develops body alignment
and posture, flexibility, strength and grace. Barre
exercises, across the floor and combinations are taught
to students of all ages and levels.
This is a high energy form of dance. Rhythm and
technique are developed leaving dancers with the
ability to let their feet create music. Childrens'
programs use the Al Gilbert tap program in order
to develop proper technique.
WE RENT TAP SHOES!
Jazz is one of the most commercialized type of dance, Jazz combines movements of the entire body. Our classes begin with warm up exercises focusing on flexibility, strength and coordinating body limbs to music. The rest of the class is a combination of across the floor exercises and high energy movements creating exciting dance routines and combinations.
Hip Hop, one of the more popular genres of dance
today, hip hop combines popular music with upbeat
movements and steps.
A very fun class filled with dance and song.
Musical theater is the type of dance you would see
on Broadway. Entertaining and fun routines are taught
in this class.
Belly Dance
Also known as Middle Eastern Dance, Belly Dance is
a high energy form of dance that will keep you
shimmying!
