Recreational dance is a form of dance done primarily for enjoyment, relaxation, and social interaction rather than for competition or professional performance. It includes a wide variety of dance styles that people participate in as a hobby or leisure activity.
Recreational dance is open to all ages and skill levels, making it an inclusive way to stay active, express creativity, and connect with others. The main focus is fun, fitness, and freedom of expression, rather than perfection or formal training.

-3 years to 5 years is our Small Fry program
-6 years to 8 years is our Cutie program

At Ignite The Stage Dance Company we offer several dance styles including
Jazz- Jazz is an energetic and upbeat style of dance that blends lively, expressive movements with strong technique. It builds on the foundations of ballet, transforming graceful movements into sharper, more powerful expressions. Jazz includes a variety of styles—such as sassy, sharp, or smooth—allowing dancers to perform the same steps with different attitudes and flair.
Tap- Tap is a style of dance that uses special shoes with metal plates on the heel and toe to create sound. Dancers use their feet like instruments, producing rhythms and beats through precise footwork. Tap classes help develop coordination, balance, timing, and a strong sense of musicality.
Ballet- Ballet is a fundamental style of dance that emphasizes proper technique, posture, and body alignment. It provides a strong foundation for essential skills such as balance, coordination, movement, and musicality. Typically slower paced, ballet focuses on repetition and precision to develop strength, control, and muscle memory.
Acro- Acro is a dance style that blends elements of gymnastics—such as tumbling, limbering, and contortion—with the technique and flair of jazz. It emphasizes strength, precision, and control while incorporating fluid dance movements. Depending on their age and skill level, students will learn a variety of tricks, including cartwheels, somersaults, front walkovers, chin stands, and more.
HipHop- Hip hop is a high-energy dance style that gets students moving with rhythm and groove. In class, dancers explore a variety of hip hop styles, including breakdancing, tutting, street style, popping, locking, and gliding. Hip hop helps students develop body isolation, musicality, and confidence while moving to the beat in a fun and expressive way.
Musical Theatre- Musical theatre is a dynamic dance style that blends expressive acting with jazz-inspired movement. It’s a great choice for those who enjoy both dancing and performing. In musical theatre, dancers bring stories to life through a combination of dance, facial expressions, character work, and lip syncing to music, creating a theatrical and engaging performance.

Competitive dance is a structured form of dance where individuals or teams perform choreographed routines and compete against others in various styles such as jazz, tap, ballet, hip hop, lyrical, and more. Dancers train intensively throughout the year to develop strong technique, stage presence, and performance skills. Competitions are held at regional, national, and sometimes international levels, where routines are judged on precision, creativity, execution, and artistry. Competitive dance fosters discipline, teamwork, and confidence, while giving dancers the opportunity to grow and showcase their talent in a high-energy, performance-driven environment.
Kinder + is a program where children between the ages of 4-6 learn 1-2 routines to compete in 1 dance competition per year, This program is made to allow children to experience the competitive life style without having to commit to part-time competitive hours.
