3.Does street jazz require extreme flexibility? (like splits or backbend)
It is a common misconception among parents that extreme flexibility is the basic for all dance forms. In street jazz, building flexibility is just a small part. The aim here is only to seek flexibility at a reasonable level rather than going to extremes. A bigger target is securing the other building blocks like posture and alignment, power, rhythm, coordination, emotion expression, and stage presence.

7. How can my child catch up if she miss classes?
1) We upload breakdown and music videos each week in our Google Classroom, allowing students to stay updated and practice on their own. Most students can catch up using these videos.
2) If extra help is needed, they’re welcome to arrive a bit early or stay a few minutes after class to ask the teacher questions when class time permits.
3) For students who miss several classes or feel behind, parents can also schedule private lessons with a registered discount to help them get back on track
8. Do teachers accept dance suggestions from students?
While we understand that students may be inspired by trending dance moves they see online, especially in K-pop, we generally don’t accept specific dance suggestions. Here’s why:
1)Dance Genre over Trends: Our focus is on teaching a complete dance genre rather than just trendy moves. We aim to give students a well-rounded system of street jazz and K-pop that extends beyond what’s currently popular.
We often adapt or create new choreography that aligns with their skill level and builds strong foundational technique.
2)Age-Appropriate Content: Not all popular moves or styles are suitable for young dancers.
​
Through years of training with us, students will gain the skills and foundation to cover any dance on their own—or even create original choreography in the future.
