Primary
The Primary class is an introduction to dance by teaching basic ballet steps and ballet terminology through creative movement. Students meet once a week for 60 minutes. During class they experience the foundation of ballet, musical rhythms, preliminary spatial awareness, and coordination in a fun and creative environment. The child’s (and parent’s) first experience with dance should be a lasting, nurturing, and positive impression. Creativity and imagination is used within the class to teach the basics of ballet steps.

Taught two a week for 60 minutes, students develop preliminary ballet techniques that increase development of motor skills and coordination. Students continue to build strength through creative movement, learn more extensive musical rhythms, refine motor skills, and continue to explore artistic expression. Students learn and gain additional muscle memory within steps and are encouraged to demonstrate knowledge of terminology and how that connects to their movement and body. More ballet repertoire is learned and previous steps learned are expanded upon and refined. Additional body positions are learned and spatial awareness, structure of lines, and terminology are encouraged. Level one will also have jazz once a week for 60 minutes.

Level 5/6
Level 5/6 is advanced technique class that combines all elements within ballet technique and artistry. This is where dancers work on the precise and small details in their technique, and growth of their own virtuosity within ballet technique. Dancers continue to expand and refine their alignment, strength, health of their bodies, and stamina. There is an attention to performing the more intricate combinations and steps that dancers learn to pick up on quickly. A more sense of responsibility is placed on the dancer to maintain and take care of their bodies and understanding of dance outside of our own studio. We encourage dancers at this age to pursue dance and what they have learned within the classroom and place it further into their lives. Level 5/6 will also have 90 minutes of Jazz and contemporary.
