Progressing from A1, A2 introduces more advanced basics and foundational movements that require a higher level of coordination and psychomotor skills! Choreography gets slightly harder here~
At B level, we’re about resilience and excellence. Here’s where you train and drill! You get to know more about dance culture, community and will be taught more about choreography and application skill. Here’s where you really breakthrough!
Here’s where you explore~ Our Multitrack level provides 8-week tasters to a variety of genres which include choreoprahy, locking, street jazz and more! Upon completion of this level, you could possibly discover your one true love before taking it up a notch and specialising in that specific genre!

Mass TLE & Dance Camps

Mass TLE is a session whereby students of all levels and classes gather for an event! In the past years’ we have had mass movie screenings, treasure hunts and carnivals.
These sessions are free for our TLE students to attend~ Sometimes we even invite our TLE alumni to these events as well!
Dance camps are usually 3 days long, where students are exposed to different elements of dance. On top of dance workshops, we will introduce other elements that come together with dance as well. In the past years, we have had workshops by a local make up artist to teach our students how to put on basic makeup before a performance.

Dance Video Shoots

Our term projects are meant to provide opportunities beyond the scope of ordinary dance classes to our students, to give them a more varied and comprehensive learning experience.

We have video shoot projects, freestyle dance battles, internal showcase dance competitions and our annual dance recital, CO-EXIST! These term projects are conducted to help expose our students to the other elements of dance and provide them with the platform to explore and express themselves, regardless of their level of dance.

Featured

Ricole Sim (Batch 2)

Thanks to the opportunities offered by LDC, I was able to participate in my first dance competition, my first recital, my first battle and also my first collaboration class. Together with some of my peers I have met in TLE, I was able to understand the joy of dance and grow both as a dance and a person.

Chang Zixuan (Batch 6)

My main goal when I first started TLE in LDC was just to pick up a passion that I dropped several years ago. I joined TLE to learn dance alone, but i gained a family to dance with instead.

Chin Yun (Batch 5)

I had the opportunity to perform, compete, join dance battles and even teach collab classes under heartfelt guidance of accomplished choreographers. But the true joy of it all was finding a family in this dance community.

Chng Min Qi (Batch 5)

LDC was where I started learning how to dance properly. Through the TLE curriculum, I was able train and drill on my basics on proper ground as well as experience and further understand the history of the different dance genres.

Elaine Chia (Batch 6)

TLE is a place more than dance. At the start, I was hesitant to join TLE or my school dance CCA and I chose to join TLE. I have never regretted that decision. I started proper dancing through TLE with little to almost no basic techniques.

Ginnie Lee (Batch 5)

Japheth Chia (Batch 4)

Without the instructors here at LDC, I would have definitely been lost in this dance journey of mine. These mentors and instructors are people with genuine hearts for those that are around them, constantly grooming and pushing us to be our best selves.

Joey Ke Wan Xin (Batch 6)

The TLE program has properly taught me the foundations and knowledge of street dance and throughout the journey I’ve learnt to be more aware of my movements and have discovered my dance style. It has been a constant learning curve since day one. To date, I am still grateful to have started my dance journey here with LDC. I could never imagine how my dance journey would be like if it wasn’t for the safe and nurturing environment provided here.

Keegan Tyler Chong (Batch 3)

TLE has helped me gain back my love for dance after losing it when I graduated from Polytechnic and got busy in Army. Through the TLE programme, I’ve learned the necessary foundations and lessons needed to push my craft further.

Marcus Ting (Batch 4)

TLE gave me the opportunity to join a club that gave me a place to call home and a group of people to call family and push the boundaries together through training for dance. It's been a fun journey up till this now and at this point there's only one way and that's up!

Ng Xue Ying (Batch 3)

It was soon after that I chanced upon the TLE programme, where it provided an environment for me to learn dance in a structured way.

The instructors are also very friendly and patient in teaching dance. Throughout the structured TLE programme, the instructors always tried their best to give you personal feedbacks on you could work on your craft as dancer.

Paige Sia (Batch 1)

I was relatively new with no solid foundations and TLE provided a really safe and warm place for me to train up my foundations and discover myself as a human and as a dancer.

Rae Lim (Batch 6)

The fire started when I saw my friends perform in CO-EXIST, leading me to sign up for TLE because I “wanted to be as cool as them”. Signed up expecting simple dance foundation, learning steps to a choreography, and a chance to be on stage - but got so much more than I could have expected.

Si Min (Batch 1)

TLE’s structured programme really gives you insights on the importance of your foundation and body awareness, before you aim to be a better dancer.

Yee Chuan (Batch 1)

Legacy has created a safe space for me to dance in and it's a place I will always call home.

Yuveishaa (Batch 5)

TLE helped me better understand and appreciate dance more. Even though I feel like I still have a lot more things to learn, the TLE experience helped me to become a more mature dancer.

Zita Sham (Batch 7)

TLE is a platform that I am so grateful to stumble upon as it is hard to find such a nurturing and comprehensive training dance programme in Singapore. It taught me and helped me to firm up my foundations in not just one, but various genres of dance.
