Ballet

Ballet is recommended for all students 5 years and older as it is the basis of all disciplines of dance. Classes emphasize the development of classical ballet skills with a focus on proper placement and alignment. Students will learn ballet vocabulary through barre and center work while building strength and flexibility. Students will learn and demonstrate basic ballet terminology. Students will gain musical awareness while dancing to classical music and develop attention skills while listening to the teacher's instructions. In addition to ballet technique, students will work with other individuals their age and practice working within a group. Ballet class reviews all basic ballet technique including positions of the feet and arms, proper body alignment, turnout, ballet vocabulary, barre exercises, across the floor, and center work. Classes will provide students with exercises that build muscle strength, increase flexibility, and provide a foundation that can be applied to all dance styles. While in class, the students are expected to constantly focus their bodies on proper carriage of the torso, arms, and back.

Mommy and Me

Mommy and Me is a class for our little ones who are two years old or aren't quite ready to go into the classroom alone. An adult family member (someone who the child feels comfortable with) will escort him or her into the class and participate in the activities. In this class, we play games and sing songs to help the dancers understand good classroom behavior. Mommy and Me is structured to stimulate coordination skills, listening skills, balance, music interpretation, creative movement and motor development in the youngest dancers. This program is an excellent introduction to the world of dance! After December, we slowly introduce the students to going into the classroom on their own.
