The Dance Company's 6-9 year old classes are dedicated to giving the young student a broad range of dance and performance in a carefully designed curriculum.  Children experience an inspiring introduction to ballet, tap, jazz, hip hop, lyrical, musical theatre, and Broadway jazz.  Students develop a strong technical base while experiencing a broad range of choreographic styles.  These upbeat dance classes greatly enhance their range of styles while experiencing the excitement and fun of discovering their physical abilities and creative interests. The classes available are:

Ballet - Tap - Jazz Combo

In the Ballet - Tap - Jazz combination classes, students are introduced to proper dance technique, correct placement of the body and development of the feel, back, and arms in all three disciplines.  As they move through the different levels, students develop their memory, focus and acquire the etiquette of dance class.  These classes are the springboard needed to lay down the foundation for future study of more advanced ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical, and hip hop. The dress code for this class is a black leotard (any style), pink tights, pink ballet slippers, and tan tap shoes with straps (no ribbons).
