Everything Goes Dance teaches a variety of dance styles. We teach our students solid, classical technique and then embellish it with the latest dance combinations. Our offerings are truly international. In addition to our regular classes, we also sponsor several workshops each year, in which national and international dance stars share their art with our students. Click here for more information.

JAZZ
Imagine a Broadway stage ... the orchestra playing its heart out ... the chorus line behind you moving in perfect unison ... and you in the spotlight, flawlessly executing the choreography done by last year's Tony Award winner. That's Jazz dance!  It's flowing, rhythmic, hot, lyrical, expressive, and most of all, FUN!  Register for a Jazz class and learn some of the moves that keep Everything Goes dancers in the winner's circle at competitions and festivals throughout the region. Jazz classes are offered for students aged 7 - adult. Jazz classes are taught by Shannon Calderon Primeau, Lynna Schneider, and guest faculty representing the region's best dancers.

BALLET/POINTE
Ballet is the foundation of most of the dance genres. Our teachers, who hold degrees in ballet pedagogy, help students develop strength, coordination and grace. Our students are taught classical form in their earliest years of study, and later they build on that strong foundation, to dance with grace and beauty, as classical ballerinas or in other genres. Everything Goes offers ballet for ages 3-adult. Students may start pointe classes with the approval of an instructor. Except in rare cases, pointe students should be 12 years of age or older. Cara Peters, Lynna Schneider, Shannon Calderon Primeau and Erika Reyes teach ballet.  

MODERN
Modern dance employs many of the forms and techniques of ballet but gets its inspiration from nature and from the cultures of the world. Imagine moving like a dolphin, portraying a mountain, becoming a melody. Modern dance is not hindered by any preconceived notions and is one of the most creative forms of dance. Lynna Schneider teaches Modern dance at Everything Goes. Classes are open to dancers of all ages.

TAP
From the old-style Vaudeville hoofers to modern sensations like TAP DOGS and Stomp! and incorporating moves from across the globe, our tap teachers keep things moving. Tap classes are offered for students in first grade and older. Several moms tap alongside their children, too!  Our tap teachers are Shannon Calderon Primeau, Cara Peters, and Robert Reed.

LATIN
Hot moves, fast beats and loads of fun -- that's our Latin dance classes. If you've ever wanted to shine on the dance floor and make the music come alive, check out our Latin dance classes. Classes are open to men and women, age 16 and above. Lots of couples enjoy the classes. They're a great way to stay fit, have fun and meet new people. Shannon Calderon Primeau is the instructor.

HIP HOP
That could be YOU in the latest #1 music video! Hip Hop is just plain fun. Less technical than the other classes, you will learn the latest dance moves while you're toning your muscles and having a great time. Open to dancers aged 5 - adult. Make sure to check it out! 

FLAMENCO
Flamenco is the classical dance form of many Hispanic cultures. Elegant, haunting and graceful, flamenco evokes images of courtly gentlemen, beautiful ladies and passionate emotions. The Las Americas Dance Troupe, comprised of Everything Goes Dancers, performs this beautiful style of dance for audiences throughout the state. Flamenco classes are offered for students ages 5 and above. Shannon Calderon Primeau and Erika Reyes are our flamenco instructors and choreographers.

MIDDLE EASTERN
Delphina Masri's troupe, Lord Shiva's Dancers, combines classical, ancient and contemporary forms of Middle Eastern dance into an exciting and sensual art form. Belly dancing classes are open to students ages 12 and older. The troupe performs throughout the region at festivals and other events.

MEXICAN DANCE 
Shannon Calderon Primeau and Erika Reyes teach Mexican folkloric dancing. They have been instructing children and adults in the art of Mexican Folkloric dance for many years. Performed to traditional and contemporary music, Folkloric Dance is a bright, colorful, exuberant representation of Mexican culture.

 

PRESCHOOL BALLET

This class is for our littlest dancers.  It emphasizes fitness, flexibility, fun, artistic expression and learning to work with others and follow directions.  It lasts just 45 minutes -- the upper limit of young attention spans -- and is for children ages 3 and 4.  Dust your little one's feet with stardust and start 'em on a lifetime road of enjoyment, artistry and fitness. Classes are taught by Shannon Calderon Primeau.
