Class Descriptions
Avital teaches a fun and upbeat tap class with an emphasis on the individual student. All classes involve technique and speed building sequences, tap turns, and longer pieces of choreography. She likes to utilize a large range of musical styles in her classes, and combinations often include elements of both theatre and rhythm tap.
Avital's theater dance classes feature combinations inspired by both classic and contemporary musical theater choreographers. The class begins with a set warm-up focusing on technique and alignment. Class always includes across the floor progressions and culminates with a combination set to an original cast recording. Avital provides both modifications and advancements throughout the class in order to accomodate dancers with varying levels of experience. Avital is also a certified Giordano Jazz instructor through the Nan Giordano Certification Program, and often incorporates elements of that technique into her classes.
