Dancers Are the Athletes of God
~ Albert Einstein
These wise words epitomize our mission at Ave Maria Dance Academy, a mission to provide our dancers with the highest-quality training so they can explore, cultivate, and express their God-given talents while nurturing their love of the performing arts.

lYRICAL
Lyrical is an expressive and fluid quality of dance in which intense emotions are shown. Poses showing off dancers’ flexibility and strength are held as long as possible, jumps are high and explosive, and turns are fluid, melting into the next step. Lyrical dance is an excellent addition to the ballet/jazz dancers’ arsenal. Technique and amalgamation of both disciplines need to be mastered so that the dancer can concentrate on emotionally performing the steps rather than on their mere execution. A beautiful and moving style, lyrical is a favorite of many.
