(3 year olds)

Pre Dance is a 30 minute class that meets once per week. This class is our first introduction into the world of dance. Pre dancers learn the first ballet feet and arm positions, as well as the first few basic ballet skills. We introduce the movements first, and then quickly associate the movement with the proper French term for the skill. The dancers learn these French terms quickly and can often be heard repeating them in rhythm as they execute the movement. Pre dancers also work on coordination, balance, and group dynamics. We wrap all of this in a big bundle of "princess" music and story songs using fun, colorful props and a world of creativity.

Each Pre Dance class performs one dance in our spring recital. That's right! Those tiny dancers take the stage and perform the skills they have mastered in their beautiful "first" dance costume in front of all of their proud mommies and daddies!
