Class Descriptions

HipHop/Break Dance

This beginner level class is a street dance style teaching moves often seen on the streets of NYC or on MTV.  Danced to pop, funk or hip hop music and often remixed to prolong the breaks, breaking is a well-known hip hop dance style. Breaking involves Toprock (movement while standing up), Downrock (movement on the ground), Freezes (acrobatic pauses in movement) and Power Moves (sounds like a video game, huh?).  Try it out!  You're not going to "break" yourself!  Wear comfortable clothes and clean sneakers.

Tap 

Do you dream of dancing like Cyd Charisse, Fred Astaire or Gene Kelly?  Or maybe it's Shirley Temple??? Either way, you CAN learn- at ANY AGE!  Our Adult Tap class is offered in a stress free environment!  It's so much fun!  Tap is a rhythmic, energetic dance style.  This class will have you shuffle ball changing around the house in no time!  You might just grow curly red hair and take 30 years off of your life!  ..and don't worry, this class is just for FUN!  We won't make you go on stage and perform, unless you REALLY want to!

Salsa On2 !

We'd like to run this class again, but we need more interest. 
Please let us know if you are interested!

New York Style Salsa (On2) connects more with the rhythmic percussive elements in classic salsa music, and can therefore feel more natural to the dancer. Compared to ballroom salsa, this style is more fluid, allows for more freedom of movement and individual interpretation and lends itself to more of a "club" style.  If you want to learn salsa then this is the group for you! Come meet with other aspiring salsa dancers in a friendly no pressure environment. Lessons are taught by Nelson Gomez.  He gives instruction on a down to earth personal level and makes sure everyone gets the attention that they need. If you've never danced Salsa before, now is your chance to learn! You can sign up with a partner or as a single.  Oh yeah, and it counts as exercise too!

Nelson Gomez has been dancing and performing in New York since 2004 and has recently started teaching in PA.  With the Carlos Konig Team, he has performed at several venues in NYC such as Lincoln Center Jazz and the Central Park Bandshell.  Nelson has also done charity and volunteer dance classes and performance for the NYC Department of Education, Feed the Children - Africa and more recently at the Midland Beach Manor Salsa Night and church group outings.   Nelson likes to say that learning salsa is as easy as "1,2,3,...5,6,7"!  

Nelson Gomez and Simone Kereit


*** These classes do not perform on stage in any of our shows. If you are interested in performing, we can arrange private lessons for work on a performance piece. ***
