This combination class is an introduction to Ballet, Tap, and Jazz, where dancers will skip, gallop and leap…stretch, crawl, wiggle, and giggle, while learning fundamental moves.
Students will learn basic tap dance, which is a wonderful activity to nurture a sense of rhythm and timing, as well as foundational ballet positions and movements. Dancers will also explore the beginning steps of jazz and work on picking up choreography sequences that fuse together style and technique. A portion of this preschool class also allows the dancers to freely experience their own moving body and find joy in dancing. We will end class with basic tumbling and balancing activities.
Dancers will participate in the 13th Annual Parish Extend Dance Academy Performance on May 10. The rehearsal will be held on May 3. The class fee includes the Dance Performance costume.
Attire: Please note that while uniformity and proper dress are the norm in dance programs, this class will not change clothes. Students should wear tennis shoes and have their hair pulled up.
