Basic gross motor skills, learning to take turns, the concepts of left, right, and following the leader are just some of the basics introduced. Beginning ballet positions, tap rhythms, tumbling, and other building blocks of good dance and tumbling are demonstrated and practiced.
4-7 Year Old classes introduce more complex, longer steps and combinations. These students wear proper tap and ballet slippers in the combo class. This allows for better evaluation of steps and insures proper techniques are being used.
8 Years through Teens classes focus on more strict and proper use of technique. Concentration is on body placement and stage presence. Although more structured and intense, the emphasis is on the thrill of dancing. This is a way to blow off steam, exercise, build a sense of camaraderie with those in the class, and laugh!
