S. T Modern & Tap (5 yrs+) The International Dance Technique (I. S. T) programme offers students the opportunity to explore a variety of dance styles, including modern and tap.
These energetic and dynamic classes teach students to move with precision and timing, building strength, coordination, and musicality. Modern dance allows for freedom of expression and encourages students to develop their own unique movement style, incorporating elements of contemporary, jazz, and lyrical dance. Tap dance focuses on rhythm and coordination, with students learning to create intricate sounds and patterns with their feet. These classes are both challenging and enjoyable, with students developing a strong foundation in technique and performance skills.
As dancers progress, they have the opportunity to participate in examinations and performances. At Julia Macalpine Dance Studio, students are treated as individuals, and each class is tailored to meet the needs and abilities of the students. The aim is to foster a love of dance and provide a supportive and inclusive environment where students can grow, develop, and thrive.
