Creative Movement (and Tap) with Music: Class Description

Students participate in creative movements, incorporating traditional ballet dance technique as well as basic motor skills such as skipping, jumping, leaping, etc. We often use props (i.e. hats, canes, scarves, and ribbons) as an aid to facilitate learning and coordination. We emphasize fun while learning expressive dance and the basics of ballet. If time and interest allows, we will progress to an introduction of tap. During the music portion of class, students learn the basics of cello, violin, and rhythms.
