contemporary modern Ballet 7-12yrs.

Instructor: Mary Lynn Lewark

Wednesdays from 4:30-5:45 / ages 7-12yrs.

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 a dancer.

Dancers will learn the forms and vocabulary of Ballet I and Ballet II supported by the creative practices, improvisation, innate qualities of human movement and communing. They learn etiquette of dance class and how to both directly learn dance choreography and how to be contributor to the artistic work that is created. Dancers will informally share class work and dance pieces with parents and friends at the end of each 10-week session.
