Ballet/Tap 4s
This class is for students that are four in September. It will consist of an equal mix of Ballet and Tap.
Ballet consists of classical training including barre and centre work. The traditions of hard work and proper technique are emphasized, and this course provides a foundation for many other movement avenues such as jazz, lyrical, tap, and more.
Tap is a stylized form of movement that develops coordination, rhythm, and balance and stresses footwork. Students learn vocabulary and concepts applicable to various tap forms and beyond. An understanding of shifting weight and seeing and hearing movement are emphasized. All of this lends itself to going beyond "drumming with the feet!"
