Capoeira: a traditional Brazilian form that combines martial arts and dance. Powerful and acrobatic, Capoeira builds strength, grace and coordination.

Stepping: with African roots, this form is challenging and fun. The instructor is an award-winning team captain. Click here to see a stepping demonstration.

Ballroom: a great introduction to a variety of styles that will help you through the wedding season or prepare you for a night out on the town.

The Dance program allows participants to become aware of their physical and creative capabilities, and to increase their understanding of dance as an art form and a social phenomenon. Year after year, students pursue dance as a performance art and take advantage of the technique and theory courses in ballet, modern, jazz, hip-hop, tap, improvisation, and ballroom styles. There are also courses in history, aesthetics, and composition. New courses are added in noncredit program each year. Please browse.

"Dancing in all its forms cannot be excluded from the curriculum of all noble education; dancing with the feet, with ideas, with words, and, need I add that one must also be able to dance with the pen?"- Friedrich Nietzsche
