About
Poms is a group dance genre typically performed during sporting events, blending sharp technique with high energy showmanship. Class includes an aerobic warm-up, isolations, flexibility work, traveling exercises, and level-appropriate turns and kicks using pom-style choreography. This introductory level is for dancers ages 7-10 and requires concurrent weekly enrollment in a Jazz, Ballet/Tap, or Ballet/Tap/Jazz technique class, since Poms builds on skills developed in those classes rather than teaching foundational technique from scratch.
