Move With Me

Ages 18 Months-3 years old

Move With Me is a program for children age 18 months to 3 years old who are not yet ready to be on their own in one of our preschool classes. This one hour class, designed and taught by an early childhood education specialist, introduces young children (along with a parent or caregiver) to movement key to healthy neurological development and so much more! Dance, play and use your imagination in this class that is developmentally appropriate for our youngest students!

Creative Movement 

Ages 3 & 4

Boisterous & whirling dancers will get all their wiggles out in this energetic 45-minute class designed for those daring young dancers ready to go it alone for the first time. Our Creative Movement class is a movement experience enhanced by familiar classical music – Classes introduce rhythms, basic steps, and dance terminology.  The high-energy class environment focuses on creativity and self-expression with structured progression in movement and group interaction.  It is a joyful prelude to more formal ballet and contemporary training.  We will require a parent to be present if the student is still in diapers.

Pre-Ballet Levels 1, 2, & 3

Ages 4-7

Pre-Ballet classes offer young dancers a variety of creative movement experiences and introduce students to the art of ballet at an age-appropriate pace.  Children learn basic ballet positions, vocabulary, and studio etiquette while focusing on improving coordination and musicality.  Students may also wish to take a Find Your Style class for an exciting introduction to tap, hip hop, modern, jazz, flamenco, lyrical, acting, improvisation, and singing presented on a rotating schedule throughout the school year.   Children at this level are placed primarily by age rather than dance experience or ability. Children must meet each class age requirement by September 1st.

• Pre-Ballet 1 – 45-minute class

• Pre-Ballet 2 & 3 – 1-hour class

Note: Dancers aged 6+ and enrolled in Pre-Ballet 3 are eligible to audition for our Youth Ensemble.
