Coppelia | April 2 – June 6
This Spring we explore the playful and exciting story of Coppelia. We will strive to increase focus, improve your child’s ballet vocabulary, and improve upon proper execution of ballet fundamentals. Nurturing your child’s creativity, joy, love of movement are daily class goals made possible in a focused and caring environment.
Creative Ballet
A great class for children who require a more high-energy approach to movement classes. Both Creative Ballet and Pre Ballet introduce ballet fundamentals and French terminology, but Creative Ballet is a great class option for children who require a more high-energy, playful and creative approach to learning movement. We will also work on social skills such as taking turns, following directions, dancing with a partner, as well as musicality, creativity, and self-expression through movement. This joy-filled class will help increase focus, motor skills, strength, balance and flexibility. We will also explore story ballets, and learn a piece of choreography to represent the story we are studying.
This is an independent class for students who are ready to remain in the studio for the full 45 minutes without a parent or guardian. Please check your receipt for necessary ballet attire.
