Jazz and Acro

Built on Dedication, Driven by Honest Instruction

Training that moves dancers forward every class

At Lisa’s Dance and Exercise, every class we teach centers on one outcome: dancers who truly progress. We don’t rush technique or skip foundational work for flashy shortcuts. Our focus is building long-term skill through proper form, deliberate conditioning, and age-appropriate choreography. Every student is treated with individual attention, ensuring they develop strength, flexibility, and confidence that carries into performance and daily life.

Confidence, Strength, and Artistry in Every Movement

Where technique meets creative expression

Our Jazz and Acro program builds the physical skills and artistic confidence young dancers need to excel. Every class blends stretching, conditioning, and center-floor technique with tumbling progressions that develop strength, balance, and flexibility. Students learn proper form for acrobatic skills while exploring jazz choreography that sharpens musicality and performance quality. The result is a dancer who moves with control, grace, and self-assurance on stage and beyond.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between jazz and acro dance?

Jazz focuses on rhythm, choreography, and performance technique, while acro combines dance with gymnastics skills like cartwheels, handstands, and flexibility training. Both disciplines build strength and coordination in different ways.

Most students start acro around age five when they can follow instructions and have basic body control. Younger dancers benefit from beginner tumbling classes that introduce foundational skills safely.

Once a week is standard for beginners, while intermediate and advanced dancers often attend two or more sessions to build muscle memory and progress through skill levels consistently.

Contact us to arrange a trial class so your child can experience our teaching style and meet the instructors. It helps both you and your dancer decide if the program fits.

Fitted athletic wear that allows full movement works best. Hair should be pulled back, and bare feet are required for acro work. Avoid loose clothing that can catch during tumbling.
