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 and tap. During the music portion of class, students learn the basics of cello, violin, rhythms and the orchestra. We also introduction visual arts pieces to learn to move with ART.
