Elements 1 (Kindergarten)
Elements is a ballet and tap class. It is the first step of our Core Program aiming to give our young dancers the foundational skills needed to launch their development as dancers: beginner ballet technique and musicality and rhythm from tap. Dancers will begin in ballet and then change shoes for tap. Dancers will perform ONE dance in the Recital.
Ballet is an essential component to developing as a dancer. All technical work such as leaps, turns, kicks, extensions, and body control stem from ballet training. The necessary understanding of body alignment and isolations come from ballet training as well. Ballet is a core part of our program so that dancers can express themselves and quickly pick up the styles of jazz, lyrical, contemporary, and hip hop.

Foundations 2 (3rd Grade)
Foundations is the second step in BDC’s core dance program. It focuses on producing well-rounded dancers in ballet, tap, jazz, and hip hop. There is a ballet section where dancers will participate in barre and center floor exercises to learn fundamental techniques of a dance education. Dancers will also learn a combination of tap and jazz/hip hop, developing a sense of rhythm while building strength, control, and coordination. Dancers will perform TWO dances in the recital.
A Note about Ballet: Ballet is an essential component to developing as a dancer. All technical work such as leaps, turns, kicks, extensions, and body control stem from ballet training. The necessary understanding of body alignment and isolations come from ballet training as well. Ballet allows dancers to quickly pick up the styles of jazz, lyrical, contemporary, and hip hop.
