This class is broken up into two parts: basic ballet technique and creative movement centered in modern dance. Technique ensures a dancer's longevity, prevents injury, builds strength and flexibility, and refines coordination and movement quality; while creative movement applies technique and develops children as artists, providing them opportunities for individual expression and exploration. The creative movement portion of this class will be inspired by different themes and topics from literature. 

Students will be taught the elements of dance such as space, time, and energy. Learning these elements provides dancers with a strong base for choreography and performance because they influence the theme/emotional context of dance. The goal is to inspire creativity, inventiveness, and authenticity by giving our young creators interesting topics and time and space to try new things.
