Our Annual JUST DANCE Concert!
Uprep Dance Department |
University Preparatory School Dance Department ~ Giving students the tools and opportunities to become lifelong physical, healthy individuals through daily training in multiple dance and physical disciplines. U-Prep offers eight dance classes a day. These classes focus on the study of multiple dance forms including ballet, modern, jazz, and musical theatre. Students gain the ability to perform in all disciplines with an improving understanding of style and expression. Students also explore the art of choreography and learn about dance history. The Dance Department puts on a large production in early Spring, titled JUST DANCE! in the David Marr Auditorium. This concert allows all the dance students to be in at least two numbers with full costumes, lighting, and a large audience. At the end of the year, the dance department has a spring showcase where the students show the audience technique and class skills. This Spring Showcase also allows certain dancers to demonstrate their choreography skills. Students from the dance department may audition to be a part of the dance chorus for the fall musical each year, as well as audition to be a part of the U-Prep Dance Team. The Dance Department currently consists of eight classes, all varying in age and skill ranging from Dance 1 - Dance 6. Marissa Kinneavy and Shelby Stuckey are the instructors for the Uprep Dance Department. |
