Creative Dance
Our Creative Dance program is the perfect introduction to the joy of dance and music through the study of technique, musicality, and improvisation. In Creative Dance (Age 4-6) our young dancers have fun learning dance fundamentals to live musical accompaniment.
Once our dancers are 5 years old they can choose to explore more of what The School has to offer through a Creative Exploration class (Age 5-6). In these classes, students begin to study a genre of their choice – Ballet, Modern, Hip-Hop, Broadway Jazz, or Tap – while still developing motor skills, confidence, and social development, the core elements of our Creative Dance class . These classes are designed to prepare students for moving into a genre-specific class in our Children and Teen Program by 6.
