Musical Theatre /Voice/ Music

---

 Our Musical Theater program has been expanding for the past 5 years, with more and more kids getting interested in becoming performers who can do it all (acting, singing, and dancing). As we continue to grow our program, we have added two Musical Theatre specific classes:  Dance Technique for Musical Theatre and Musical Theatre Performance Technique. 

Dance Technique for Musical Theatre is designed to provide exceptional dance training to beginner or beginner/intermediate middle and high-school students. Many musical theatre students find they don't have time to train in dance while also performing.  This class covers the essentials for musical theatre dance. 

We have also added a Musical Theatre Performance Technique class with Miss Christine Orta.  This class combines songs, spoken words, acting, and dance.  

Theatrical performance teaches essential life skills including showmanship, teamwork, and creativity while providing a platform for one to discover their inner talents and build self-confidence.  

Reflex also offers private Voice and Music Lessons with Miss Charlene

Private lessons offered are as follows: 
* Any wind instrument (specializes in woodwinds at the beginning and intermediate levels. Advanced level for oboe)
* Any beginning string instrument (Violin for anyone under 5th grade, and Viola, Cello and Bass at the middle school beginner level) 
* Piano (students 5 and older beginning to intermediate levels) 
* Voice ( 3rd grade and older beginning to intermediate levels)​
