PREPARATORY PROGRAM

Basic Dance Elements (3, 4, 5 years old)* Children will experience the joy of dance in a loosely structured atmosphere. These classes focus on freedom of movement, rhythmic expression, spatial awareness and proper body technique.

Preparatory (4, 5, 6 years old)* Students expand their dance terminology, musicality, listening skills, and respectful interaction with others. Classes combine the elements of basic dance with the rudiments of classic ballet and jazz.

Pre-Ballet (7 years old) * The primary focus of this class is on the rudiments of both classical and character ballet.

*All students must be appropriate age by September 1 and will remain at that level all year. Exceptions with instructor’s consent only.
