Class Description

Discover the joy of dance through a perfect blend of classical technique and creative expression!

This joy filled class combines two elements: foundational ballet technique and modern dance. In the technique portion, students build strength, flexibility, and coordination—essential building blocks for strong dancers. Meanwhile, the creative movement portion allows students to apply their technical skills while encouraging personal expression and artistic exploration.

Guided by themes in literature, students will learn the key elements of dance– time, space, and energy. These elements provide a strong base for choreography and performance.  Through improvisation, partnering, and group activities, students will develop not only their technical skills but also their ability to communicate 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 participate 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.
