Ballet

Creative Movement/Parent and Me

A fun-time creative movement class that encourage your child to move while teaching them the fundamentals. Children learn the structure of dance class, how to utilize motor skills in movement, and develop basic technique through the experience of creative imagery and improvisation.

 

Storybook Ballet/Creative Movement

Imagination in motion. Dancers with experience develop a love of dance through storytelling, improvisation, and creative exploration. Each week the class leads dancers on a different musical journey (to the jungle, a magical kingdom, etc.), with focus on motor-skill development, building classroom skills, and proper ballet technique.

Beginning Ballet/Studies in Movement

Introduces Ballet technique, vocabulary, and fundamentals with a creative and playful approach. This Ballet and Creative Movement class builds on basic technique, developing focus in the classroom/dance studio, teaches children a variety of dance combinations and exposes them to different movement forms. Requires (at least) 1 year movement experience.

Ballet I/II/Studies in Dance

This class is ideal for students with 2 (or more) years of dance/movement experience. Our classes will further develop proper Ballet technique and also introduce the young dancer to other dance forms, including Modern, Ethnic, and Musical Theatre. Children will learn more advanced dance combinations, as well as improvisation and creating their own choreography.
