Lyrical dance blends the technique of ballet with the expressive elements of jazz and contemporary movement. Dancers explore storytelling through motion, emotional expression, musical interpretation, and lyrical choreography in a supportive, artistic environment.

Our Lyrical Program serves dancers from Blacksburg, Christiansburg, Radford, and the entire NRV, helping young artists connect movement and emotion while building strong technique.
