CHILDREN’S CLASSES

CREATIVE MOVEMENT

I am the beginning, my first experience of dance
I am learning to be in class by myself
I am full of play and stories, nature, the  changing seasons
and all that I can see around me
I explore my self through space
I plié, passé, skip, tumble, sing, listen and move
I am small but fierce, I am tiny grace.
I am a story.

PRE-BALLET – ON HOLD

I want to move like a ballet dancer.
I turn out and pointe,
I relevé and sauté
I master the beginning of ballet
I am aware and coordinate myself in space
I am music, I listen, I sing and I move
I mix my skills with imagination.
I am royalty.

BALLET 1/2 – ON HOLD

I am ballerina.
I turn out and pointe,
I relevé and sauté, chaine turn and passè
I work to master intermediate ballet
I am aware and coordinate myself in space
I am music, I listen, I sing and I move
I mix my skills with imagination.
I am grace.

BOUNCE KIDS – ON HOLD

I am elegant.
I stand in my bones.
I excel in my form because I know where my entire body is in space.
I am strong and flexible. I navigate my tiny and big muscles.
I use speed and force with ease, constantly challenging my range.
I shift effortlessly through all movement forms and then break them

I see, I feel, I sense, I dance.
I am a alive.

CONTEMPORARY MODERN BALLET

I direct my bones through space
I listen to the transfer of my own weight
I use the form of ballet to create my lines and precision
and then I break it
against the wild imaginative movement of the creature
I practice, I sweat, I do it again and again, I play
I expand my location in space everywhere
I am dancer.
