What the studio teaches
The studio's schedule is built around dance. Breakdance, modern dance and ballet appear in several levels, from beginner to experienced, and the classes for children and teens are set apart from the adult classes. Ballet has a strong exam thread, with interfoundation and intermediate classes that work on the set dances of the RAD grades.
Pilates and zumba are the two main classes outside dance. The Pilates class is for beginners and intermediate students together. Zumba is a more social class with a steady beat.
The shape of the week
Most classes are in the evening. Start times cluster around 5:15pm, 5:30pm, 6:15pm and 8:15pm, and the latest class begins at 9pm. Midday classes are few, and there are very few weekend classes. Monday, Tuesday and Thursday carry more of the week than the other days.
CENTER OF DANCE is run by about ten facilitators. Oliver Detelich, Cristina Voce, Carla Silva, Berk, Milen, Eddie, Gabriel Manz, Karyna, Sally and Kelvin O. Hardy lead the largest share of the classes.
