All dancers are introduced to age-appropriate techniques and vocabulary. We will follow an adaptive curriculum – the techniques and lessons focused on in each level of classes are unique to the group of students in the class at that time. Dancers are continuously evaluated, and we will provide you with recommendations on which classes to take from session to session. Dance classes are divided into age categories, but dance instructors may recommend moving your dancer to a different level after the first few classes of a new session. Class Attire: Overall, dance attire should allow the student to move freely without need for readjustment, hair should be pulled back so that it stays out of the eyes, face, and off the neck.
