NYT STUDIO CLASS SCHEDULE
(Schedule Grid of Classes)
MONDAY CLASSES:
Classes take place at Collective Church (formerly known as Freedom Church) 8103 FM 1488, Magnolia 77354
4:30 p.m.-5:30 p.m. CLASSES
Movement/Jazz (Ages 5-6): This class will teach technique that combines the structure and discipline of ballet with the upbeat style of classic jazz. It will include intentional time spent on the foundational elements of movement and give attention to combinations and “across-the-floor” variations where students will develop the skills to apply the technical components of movement they have learned into their performances. Building on that foundation, the intermediate classes will expand to more advanced techniques while continuing to teach practical application of technique into jazz-style combinations. This class will include movement and combinations that increase the level of difficulty as the dancers move from one level to the next.
Class Instructor: Sara Morris
7:10 p.m.-8:10 p.m. CLASSES
Tap Beginner (Ages 8-12): These classes will focus on learning the basics of technical tap and its vocabulary, while developing rhythm and coordination. Each class is designed to improve a student’s timing, sound clarity, and ability to find rhythms and beats. Class exercises will help students gain the flexibility and strength of the ankles and knees which is needed for more complex combinations and increased speed.
Class Instructor: Jaylyn Richards

Beginning Hip Hop (Ages 11-19): These upbeat classes will explore concepts of hip hop, pop and lock, and break dance. It will be high energy and encourage the dancer to explore new rhythms and accents within their movement. Although technical concepts will be taught this class will focus more on combinations, performance of movement, and across the floor exercises. Class Instructor: Britanie Long
Beginning Sight Singing/Ear Training (Ages 12-19): Learn to read music as it applies to the voice. We will be learning solfege syllables (do-re-mi) to hear and sing scales and intervals. This will directly apply to reading and singing melodies and harmonies together. Get ready to sing a cappella! Class Instructor: Katrin Young
Stretch & Strengthening (Ages 5-99): This class will enhance what the other technical classes are teaching. This class will focus on creating more flexibility and strength for each dancer to aid in their training in the other dance technique classes.
