FIND YOUR RHYTHM: ART OF VIII SCHOOL OF DANCE OPEN HOUSE

Saturday, January 3 | 10 AM - 2 PM

Step into the sanctuary of self-discovery at Art of VIII School of Dance, where adults of all experience levels are invited to awaken their bodies and spirits through the transformative power of dance.

Our Open House showcases our CORE dance curriculum—Ballet, Modern, Jazz, and Contemporary—the fundamental styles that build strong, versatile dancers and nourish the soul.

WHY THESE CORE STYLES MATTER:

BALLET: The foundation of all dance disciplines, ballet teaches proper alignment, balance, and grace. Its structured technique builds body awareness and creates a physical vocabulary that enhances every other dance style you'll ever learn.

MODERN: Embrace freedom of movement and expression through this grounded, organic style. Modern dance teaches you to work with gravity rather than against it, developing strength, flexibility, and emotional connectivity to movement.

JAZZ: Energetic and rhythmic, jazz dance builds coordination, musicality, and dynamic performance skills. Its syncopated movements and expressive style bring joy while developing quick directional changes and stylistic versatility.

CONTEMPORARY: Blending elements of ballet, modern, and jazz, contemporary dance allows for personal interpretation and storytelling. This evolving style teaches adaptability and helps you develop your unique artistic voice.

DURING THE OPEN HOUSE:

• Experience mini-classes in all four styles
• Meet our passionate instructors
• Discover how these foundational styles support specialized dance forms
• Ask questions about our approach to adult dance education
• Secure your spot in our Foundation Season starting January 5, 2026

Whether you're an absolute beginner yearning to dance for the first time, returning to dance after years away, or simply seeking a space to reconnect with yourself—Art of VIII School of Dance welcomes you exactly as you are.

No special attire required for the Open House—just wear comfortable clothing you can move in, and come ready to explore the joy of movement in a supportive, non-competitive environment.
