Pre-Ballet Starting ballet early
gives a child the best possible chance to develop coordination, balance
and flexibility. Classes are designed
to enhance a child's overall physical development. Music and imagery
are used to encourage rhythmic skills, body awareness, expression and
creativity.
Your child will develop gross and fine motor skills while learning musicality
(interpretation, rhythm, timing) class etiquette, socialization skills
(cooperation, self-control) counting, and directional awareness (left-right,
forward-back, up-down). Basic ballet movements are introduced.
Ballet
1 - 2 Children are introduced to basic ballet stretches and alignment.
These classes introduce more structure, correct placement, and fundamental
ballet movements. Children also learn how to follow instruction and
class etiquette. They continue to develop strength, flexibility and focus
before
moving on to Ballet 3 in the Upper School.
