DRESS CODE
Wearing the proper attire to dance class is important! Proper dance attire can completely change their posture, and in the right dancewear, a dancer feels more confident and willing to take on the challenge of any new step or skill. Dancers at all levels can benefit from wearing proper dress code when they are in class, rehearsing, and performing.

POWERHOUSE
Powerhouse is a 30-minute express mat-based Pilates + sculpt class focused on deep core strength, stability, and control. This is more than an ab workout—it’s about learning how to connect your breath, alignment, and deep core muscles to create strength that supports your entire body.
Using intentional, controlled movements, resistance bands and blocks, we’ll challenge the deep core while building strength, endurance, balance, and body awareness. Expect a focused burn, thoughtful movement, and a class that leaves you feeling stronger, more supported, and more connected from the inside out.
Built with dancers in mind, but made for every body. Powerhouse is designed to help you develop the strength and control that carry beyond the mat and into your movement.
