DANCING TOGETHER

Beginning dancers, along with a grown-up, are introduced to Ballet through creative imagery, props and music. They learn to express themselves and gain coordination through movement, as well as practice skills like taking turns, identifying colors and shapes, and following directions, in a structured class environment. 

CLASS LENGTH - 30 MINUTES

CREATIVE BALLET

In their first independent class, dancers enjoy a balanced curriculum of creative movement and age-appropriate classical Ballet. They are introduced to beginning positions, terminology and traveling steps. This class helps them gain confidence, meet friends and explore feelings through props, storytelling and plenty of imagination.

PRIMARY BALLET II

Dancers begin a very exciting part of Ballet class: barre work. They build upon their benchmarks from Creative and Primary Ballet by learning about placement and musicality.
