Jr Company is designed for dancers who are ready to blend foundational dance technique with faster-paced movement and style. In this class, students will learn proper dance technique—such as body isolations, performance quality, and the development of complex rhythms and patterns—all while building flexibility, a strong sense of rhythm, and improved coordination. This year, we’re introducing a special Bollywood–Hip Hop fusion in collaboration with Upper School dancer, Sophia Tellis, providing a dynamic cultural twist to our core curriculum.

What to Expect

1. Warm-Up & Conditioning: Dancers start with energizing exercises and isolations to prepare the body for more advanced movement.

2. Technique Drills: Focus on body alignment, control, and rhythmic precision, giving students the foundation they need to adapt to a variety of dance styles.

3. Across the Floor: Dancers practice faster-paced progressions—such as turns, leaps, and stylized footwork—emphasizing proper form and transitions.

4. Bollywood–Hip Hop Fusion: Students delve into vibrant Bollywood steps fused with Hip Hop grooves, guided by Sophia Tellis, exploring new cultural elements and contemporary moves.
