Dance Alive Studios was created in the summer of 2017 to meet the changing needs of adult dancers in the Saskatoon community. Caelia Gardiner, the owner and Artistic Director of DAS, developed the adult dance program at Juliette’s Dance Centre from 2011 to 2017.
This program has become unique in the field – it provides aspiring adult dancers with progressive levels of focused training at their desired level. Recreational dance is the common stream, but more intense training opportunities are available upon request (group and solo competition, examination, teacher training, etc.).
Perfect for children who want to explore movement and for caregivers who want to get out of the house and meet new friends!
Our Acro program is based in good foundation gymnastics conditioning and incorporates elements from the Acrobatic Arts dance program. As adults, it can be difficult and even scary to develop the skills necessary to safely perform acrobatic tricks.
Previously called “Hip Hop”, our classes are now called Street Dance to show respect toward Hip Hop culture (includes dance, community, music, clothing, and more).
Basic Jazz technique – posture control, weight placement, core strength – is very similar to Ballet, so Ballet training is often helpful for the Jazz dancer. Jumps and turns are prominent in Jazz training, and dances are usually performed to upbeat music with style.
Ankle mobility, weight placement, and glute activation are key components. Tyneal approaches Tap from a fundamental movement approach with proper conditioning and biomechanical techniques, while weaving in the history and rhythm of the steps.
