Hawaiian Hula
The hula is the dance from Hawaii where the story of the culture
and history is expressed through graceful hand movements.

teach the hula and share the Hawaiian culture! Participants should
wear comfortable clothing.
Hip Hop
This class will teach beginner to intermediate level hip hop
moves, while focusing on developing a sense of rhythm through
hip hop choreography.
Irish Step Dance
Learn the traditional Irish Jig, Reels, Hornpipes and team
figure dances. The McNulty School of Irish Dance program is
designed to challenge each dancer to achieve his or her personal
best, while helping individuals develop concentration skills,
coordination and self-confidence. Dancers begin learning solo
and team dances in Irish soft shoes and then progress to more
complex soft-shoe and heavy-shoe steps over time. Class attire
includes black t-shirts or leotards, black shorts, white socks,
and Irish, jazz, ballet or light gym shoes. No long pants of any
kind. No refunds once class has begun. All levels of Irish dance
with the exception of beginning classes require the instructor’s
recommendation. To enroll in a heavy-shoe class, you must be
enrolled in a soft-shoe class during the same session.
Jazz I & II
Put classic jazz moves to cool music. This type of dance is
energetic and fun! Dancers learn basic jazz techniques including
jazz turns and the art of suspension: moving through positions
instead of stopping and balancing in them.
Modern
Modern dance gives students the opportunity to explore their
own dance style outside of a more traditional ballet or jazz class.
Modern explores rhythm and space, and emphasizes floor work,
flow and expressive movement.
