Dance Classes Available
The best foundation for a well-rounded dancer is classical ballet. At Artisan School of Dance, we specialize in classical ballet instruction. In addition to classical ballet, we also encourage our dancers to be well-rounded in other areas of dance. That is why we offer instruction in jazz, contemporary and flamenco. Artisan offers dance instruction for all ages, from toddlers to adults. Classical ballet is the foundation on which all dance is built. Through their instruction, our dancers receive the benefits of classical training, including discipline, grace, balance, full-body strength, and coordination. With more than 50 years of combined classical dance training, knowledge, and professional experience, we instruct our dancers in the proper fundamentals of classical ballet.

Flamenco
Flamenco is a style of music and dance depicted as being the music of Andalusian gitanos (gypsies) of Spain. But historically, its roots are in mainstream Spanish society, beginning in the 18th century. Flamenco is made up of 3 different parts, el toque (guitar), el cante (song), and el baile (dance).

Jazz
Jazz is currently one of the most popular dance styles because it allows for individual expression and interpretation. It provides a wonderful way for students to develop musicality and coordination, as well as the perfect outlet for individual artistic expression, in contrast to the classical ballet classroom format.
