You know your child loves to move and groove when they are constantly practicing at home – tapping their toes under the table. Watch as their passion continues as they polish their skills learned in their Junior dance classes. These classes foster creativity, confidence and connection with fellow dancers.

Strong ballet technique is the foundation of many dance styles. Combining art and grace with the development of technique and placement. Dance Extreme students study the Cecchetti method. The same method used by the National Ballet of Canada, Royal Winnipeg Ballet Company and the Quinte Ballet School.
Dancers love our jazz classes! We combine formal technique with current dance moves. We use popular music and appropriate music for our classes. Students develop skills in the latest dance styles, jumps, and turns. They also develop self-expression and musicality.
Dancers are challenged by combining acrobatics skills with dance steps. We blend tricks, balance, flexibility, tumbling and dance technique. Most importantly, it is all done in a fun and artistic way. We recommend dancers take jazz or have jazz experience.
Anyone can join these high-energy classes, just bring some attitude and a little individual style! Hip Hop and Breakdancing classes give dancers the opportunity to dance to their favourite music and learn all the popular dance steps from the hottest music videos.
If you love to make noise with your feet, tap is the discipline for you. Tap is the discipline where your feet make the music. Paired with popular music, students will learn to improve their timing and coordination while developing rhythmic and syncopated footwork.
If your child loves the spotlight, this is the class to join! Musical Theatre is a fun, creative and very expressive class. We combine elements of dance and drama. Musical Theatre classes at Dance Extreme help students develop their performance skills.
Flight elements (aerials, back tucks, etc…) are introduced on a variety of tumbling surfaces. This includes wedges, the tumbling strip and our sprung floor. Recommended for students who are concurrently taking acro classes. Also, students wanting to achieve more advanced tumbling skills.
Contemporary is an interpretative and creative form of dance. The dancers in the contemporary program will explore a variety of dance techniques while developing their own sense of creativity and expression.
Lyrical is more free-flowing than ballet. Also, the accompanying music has lyrics. Dancers are taught to be inspired and to create expressive movements that bring emotional and artistic elements to the lyrics.
