I have mastered the beginning
I know how to be in dance class by myself.
I am full of stories, nature and imagination.
I begin to use the form of ballet to create my lines and precision.
I learn the language and decorum of dance
I play with form and my wild sense to move.
I am noble and free, elegant and mischievous
I am a creator of stories.
I am fierce grace.
Dancers will learn the forms and vocabulary of Pre-Ballet using creative practices, improvisation, storytelling and innate qualities of human movement and communing. They will develop dance stories to be shared informally with parents and friends at the end of each 9-week session. We are only registering ten dancers for this class who are committed to the fall, winter and spring session.
