Special Needs - A tap and jazz based class taught by Sharon Kitchen who specializes in teaching children with special needs for 30
years. Sharon always brings out the best in her students in class and on stage.
Performance Class - For students who would like to perform with Dance Theatre Arts. Unlike our other classes, performance class is
only open at the beginning of every semester and student must be enrolled in a coordinating technique class (non-performing classes
are considered "technique" classes). We ask our students in any of our performance classes to always make a full semester
commitment. Dances are custom created for each performance group and the quality of each dance is dependant on every student in
the dance. Consecutive missed classes can result in non-participation of a performance. Examples of performances students may
participate in: Special events such as the DTA recital at the Julia Morgan Center for the Arts in Berkeley, Olympic Club Christmas
Show in SF, many festivals and fairs including the Alameda County Fair.
Adult Dance Classes
Ballet - Classical, the basis of all dance.
Tap - The best form of dance to gain rhythm as well as great exercise.
Dance Theatre Arts Program - Emphisis on Jazz, Tap, or Ballet
DTA Pre-Professional Program was created to help guide parents and students to prepare for a future in professional dance. Students
in the DTA Program have required classes, performing opportunities and dance history education which include viewing requirements.
In Level 4 & 5, students will receive career, college & audition advice. All program students will receive a level evaluation at the end of
every semester and opportunity for a teacher/student meeting.
All DTA Program students must complete Level 1 Program or audition for placement.
Sample of DTA program requirements:
Level 1 (5yrs and up)

Dance Theatre Arts believes that children should be exposed to the 3 basic elements of dance.
Ballet for technique and grace. Jazz for style and dynamics. Tap for rhythm.

Level 3

placement level. We ask our students in any of our performance classes to always make a full semester commitment. Dances are
custom created for each performance group and the quality of each dance is dependant on every student in the dance. Consecutive
