young dancer Classes
Putting the fun in fundamentals.
Our Young Dancer (Mini) classes are a great introduction to dance and creative movement! Using games, imagery, and imagination, we teach these young dancers beginning dance terminology, body awareness, and coordination. We encourage a lifelong passion for learning through music and movement, making sure the right habits and mindset are taught as early as possible. Expect your dancer to learn the basic fundamentals and terminology for Ballet, Tumble, Jazz, Lyrical, Hip-Hop, and Tap! Class descriptions, dress code, and schedules are below.

BALLET/JAZZ
Lyrical / Ballet is a great combo class for new dancers. We teach basic ballet positions and terminology using games and props, while also introducing improvisation so the dancers start to learn to express themselves through movement. We love storytelling in this class! Through movement and sometimes even through books.
Jazz/Ballet focuses on many of the same elements, but with more time spent with moving and learning to fun, high energy music!
