Jazz/Ballet

This is our basic fundamental dance class. It is recommended for all Dancer’s. If your dancer has never taken dance before, this would be the class you want to register for.

This style of dance focuses on many principles that are so important to all forms of dancing. Depending on the age group, we will learn terminology, basic ballet positions, learn leaps, turns, spotting, etc. We will also learn theformal ballet terms for these movements such as pirouette, jete, batteman, chaine, pique, and many many more. 

Dance Attire sets an attitude. It changes the mood and tone for a class and for the girls. If a girl, regardless of age, is dressed properly, she can learn properly. If a student is wearing street clothes, they don't arrive to class prepared to learn. 

Girls should wear dance attire. Girls 6 years and under should wear leotards, skirts and leather Split Sole Ballet shoes. The spring recital in May will require a class shoe color. (see office for details) Summer Classes will not specify a color. Older girls should wear athletic attire, this includes black jazz pants, lycra capri’s, cotton capri’s. They will wear Dark Tan Gore Boots without laces. We do NOT allow: Cloth Ballet Slippers, belly shirts, immodest clothing,  levi’s, pajama bottom pants, bare feet or tennis shoes in this class.

Girls should always have their hair pulled back from their face.
