Discover the joy of dance through a perfect blend of classical technique and creative expression!
This joy filled class combines two exciting elements: foundational ballet technique and imaginative modern dance movement. In the technique portion, students build strength, flexibility, and coordination—all essential for healthy, long-lasting dance skills. Meanwhile, the creative movement segment invites students to explore their own artistic voices, applying what they’ve learned in fun, expressive ways.
Inspired by themes from literature, dancers will dive into the core elements of dance—time, space, and energy—which form the building blocks for choreography and performance. Through improvisation, partnering, and group activities, students will develop not only their technical skills but also their ability to communicate emotions and stories through movement.
To bring these themes to life, we aim to have live accompanists whose music enhances the mood and flow of the class, creating a truly immersive and organic dance experience.
At the end of the semester, students will shine in a special performance, showcasing the technique they’ve mastered and the unique choreography they’ve created.
Whether your child is new to dance or already has some experience, Creative Movement offers an inspiring environment to learn, create, and grow.
