DANCE CLASS DESCRIPTIONS

​Budding Ballerinas
(Ages 1.5-2yrs)

It’s never too early to start dancing! Little ones are introduced to the world of ballet, using creative movement, games, props and songs, all while instructors teach through song. A great way for grown up and child to bond through music and movement. Child must be accompanied by an adult at all times in this class.

Plié & Play
(Ages 11-17mos)

For our blossoming dancers ages 11-17 months who are just beginning to discover their dancing feet—perfect for those friends who can't wait to start ballet, but need a few extra months of development. Our class will focus on beginning ballet exercises, incorporating the DWMR curriculum you know and love, with the addition of a live musician. We will also explore music using instruments and props. Class will finish with bubble time and open exploration. This class is ideal for those friends who can walk or walk with assistance. Plié & Play friends will graduate to ballet at 18 months.

Twinkle Toes
(Ages 2-3 yrs)

A natural progression from Budding Ballerinas. Our ballerinas are now ready to learn the basics of ballet, including the French words for our dancing. Ballerinas continue to sing and dance with instructors who teach through song. Drop-off class.

Twinkle Toes II
(Ages 3-4 yrs)

Ballerinas now recognize the French terms for most ballet moves. We continue to learn the basics of classical ballet through creative movement, storytelling, and the use of imaginative props. Our little dancers begin to blossom into real ballerinas! Drop-off class.

(Ages 6-7 yrs)

These divas really get dancing! Ballerinas have mastered the 5 ballet positions and are now dancing at the barre, across the floor, and in the center, all while instructors teach through song.
