Tots and Me
Bring your child ages 18 months to 3 years old and we will explore the joy of creative movement, that you'll get to be a part of every step of the way. Creative movement classes are best suited for young dancers just starting out. This is a ballet/jazz-based class and many of our toddlers find this class perfect for their pace. Here they will learn about musicality and movement skills. Creative movement is learning skipping, hopping, or clapping to the beat of music. We enhance their imagination by introducing imagery or “make believe”. With imagery we can become dancing clowns or fairies or of course a ballerina. Props are a great way to introduce the use of more motor skills-and the children love it. We use as many props as possible. These Toddlers will also learn a dance routine and will require the purchase of one costume. We will meet one a week for 45 minutes. This class is a wonderful introduction to dance!
In addition, your student will start learning:
1.How to follow directions.
2.To share with other kids.
3. Be independent.
4. How to take turns.
5. Gain in their own confidence.

Tiny Tumblers
This class will focus mainly on strength building and working the beginning basics of tumbling. Because of the young age of this class a lot of our class time will focus on teaching them how to use their muscles in ways they have never had to. Students will start with somersaults, and straddle rolls, as well as learning to arch up, moving up towards cartwheels, roundoffs, working up to back walkovers when ready.
***Parents should expect, plan and encourage their students to work to improve skills and be moved up to the next level. At any point in the season, if your student has shown clear understanding of the skills in their current level a parent discussion will be held to discuss moving your student to a more appropriate level to facilitate continued growth.
This class meets once a week for 60 minutes. The students will learn a tumbling routine that will be performed in our Spring Showcase. A studio Leo and spanks are required to purchase for this class.
Ages 5 - 6

Bring your child ages 18 months to 3 years old and we will explore the joy of creative movement, that you'll get to be a part of every step of the way. Creative movement classes are best suited for young dancers just starting out. This is a ballet/jazz-based class and many of our toddlers find this class perfect for their pace. Here they will learn about musicality and movement skills. Creative movement is learning skipping, hopping, or clapping to the beat of music. We enhance their imagination by introducing imagery or “make believe”. With imagery we can become dancing clowns or fairies or of course a ballerina. Props are a great way to introduce the use of more motor skills-and the children love it. We use as many props as possible. These Toddlers will also learn a dance routine and will require the purchase of one costume. We will meet one a week for 45 minutes. This class is a wonderful introduction to dance!
In addition, your student will start learning:
1.How to follow directions.
2.To share with other kids.
3. Be independent.
4. How to take turns.
5. Gain in their own confidence.

Ballet has been influential globally and had defined the foundational techniques that are used in many other genres and cultures.
Classical ballet is based on formalized movements and positions of the arms, feet, and body designed to enable the dancer to move with the greatest possible agility, control, speed, lightness, and grace. Classical-ballet technique is based on the turned-out position of the legs, which increases the range of movement through added mobility in the hip joint and also imparts a more pleasing line to the extended leg.
Ages 4 - 6
