Pre-School classes: Preschool classes are available for little dancers ages 2.9 - 5. This is a 45-minute class and is divided into Pre- Ballet & Tap segments. At this level, we explore creative movement & introduce dancing in a structured environment while teaching the very basics of dance movement & language.
CombinationTap & Ballet: This is the level that we begin to introduce proper ballet and tap technique along with specific terminology. Ballet & tap classes include barre, across the floor repetition and center combinations. We start young dancers with this combination because ballet teaches discipline and technique and tap teaches rhythm. As the level gets more advanced, class duration increases.
Hip Hop:Hip Hop is a more "MTV/street" style of
dance for ages 7 and up. The movements are both
age appropriate and less restricting. A dancer is
encouraged to put his/her style behind the
movements. It's a hit with the teens!
Adult Classes: Dance Images a Merrimack Valley Dance Studio currently holds adult classes in ZUMBA & tap. Adult classes are specifically geared toward the interests and ability of our more 'mature' students. They center on exercise and movement in a safe way. Strong technique is still maintained in all of our adult classes.

Jazz: Jazz dance is a stylized form of dance
executed to rhythmic music. It has a strong
technical base. There are many types of jazz
included in our classes. We encompass musical
theater, lyrical, classic, contemporary and funk.
Competitive Groups: Students who have had sufficient training and wish to have more performing opportunities can opt for a competitive group. Competitive dancing is for the more serious student and is contingent upon the director's approval. Competitive classes agree to study yearround for consistency in training.
Music Classes: Explore the wonderful world of music! We offer classes in piano, guitar, voice and music theory. Music is a magical gift we should cultivate in our children, especially now as scientific evidence proves that an education in the arts makes better math and science students and enhances spatial intelligence in newborns.

Ballet:Ballet is fun no matter how old you are or what goals you wish to accomplish through ballet. Becoming a ballet dancer can be as simple as practicing moves in your bedroom, or as complex as becoming a major dancer in a ballet company. All ballet dancers have one thing in common: a love of the grace, beauty and discipline of ballet.
Tap:Tap dancing is an exciting form of dance in which dancers wear special shoes equipped with metal taps. Tap dancers use their feet like drums to create rhythmic patterns and timely beats. The term "tap dancing" is derived from the tapping sound produced when the small metal plates on the dancer's shoes touch a hard floor or surface.
