Joanne Langione Dance Center
Joanne Langione Dance Center’s faculty and staff look forward to sharing a rewarding dance experience with you and your children.
The goal of Playdance (ages 2.0 - 4.0 years) is to foster a love of music and movement in your child. Using a large open dance space, a variety of music and song, along with several movement tools, the program is designed to be fun and to develop classroom readiness. We will also focus on building basic locomotive skills, coordination and strength. Imaginary journeys, improvisation and theater games will encourage self-expression and creativitiy. The concept of Playdance was created to ensure that young children do not begin formal training too early, yet are encouraged to explore as many ways of moving as their imaginations will allow. Class includes rest-time where students will hear a story and have juice.
Dancin' with Mommy (20 months –2.5 years.) is your child's first movement class. Set to upbeat, whimsical music, Dancin' with Mommy is a wonderful way to introduce your child to the endless possibilities of movement and dance. We will focus on building basic locomotive skills, coordination and strength. The learning process will be enhanced through the use of movement tools such as scarves, balls, hoops and musical instruments. Imaginary journeys, improvisation and theater games will encourage self-expression and creativity. Dancin' with Mommy is taken with a parent or caregiver. This class is geared to the child who wants to dance, but who is not yet ready to separate from mom.
Jazz, Tap and Hip-Hop Classes
Hip Hop is the most recently recognized expression of American dance, tied to rap and street music which became popular late in the 20th century. In this class, students learn the latest dance steps: hip hop, street funk, video jazz and other cool ways to move. To ensure a proper foundation in dance for all jazz and hip hop students, ballet is recommended.
Jazz and Tap are stylized, truly American forms of dance, based on fundamental ballet training and inspired by the pulse of today’s popular music. The jazz class consists of center floor exercises to develop proper technique, strength, and flexibility and includes progressions and dance combinations. A sound foundation in tap is established by learning standard tap vocabulary upon which more intricate footwork may be taught.
Jazz/Tap Dress Code: JLDC regulation black leotard, black jazz pants, black tap shoes and Tan Jazz shoes.
