Each week we will learn the importance of a basic Ballet Barre warmup along with basic ballet terminology and strong technique. *some classes are 8 Weeks with 1 class per week and some are 8 classes with 2 classes per week* Class will be structured as follows: 1.Warm-up - Using silly dance moves, we will get our bodies warm. We will do basic Plies, releves, and arm movements (pors de bras) at the barre. A real Barre is not required. There are many household items that can be used; a chair, back of a couch or sofa, or a counter top. We will then stretch our muscles in a playful way that children don't realize what they are doing =) 2.Center work - We will learn a new Ballet and/or dance foundational movement at the "center" of the floor each week that will build on top of each previous dance move. 3.Dance/Choreography - We will work on putting together the basic movements we are working on learning to a song to be able to show off to family/friends at a later date. This class is meant to be fun for the kids and also informative of how to do basic ballet and dance moves. Dance builds confidence, strength, and is also a great activity to stay healthy and fit. Each week will include coloring pages to help remember what we are working on, music to practice at home, and any feedback the students want!

**Ask me about sibling discounts!
I teach Movement classes in studio and online as well! I have been teaching dance for 15+ years to all ages (18months - adult) as well as Fitness classes to kids and adults. Dance has been a major part of my life for 32 years and I love bringing that passion to others. I've worked with young and old, special needs, low-impact or injured, wheel-chair bound, and all others!
I believe that Dance/Movement is a rare "sport" that is all-inclusive; gross and fine motor skills, spatial awareness, emotionally stimulating, builds self-confidence, improves discipline & listening skills, and much more.
My family consists of my super supportive husband, my oldest daughter (8) youngest daughter (6), and then the littlest one is 3years old, but he was born 3-1/2 months early. We spent a significant amount of time in the NICU in the city we live in and are forever grateful for modern medicine! Our life has been a rollercoaster and, as crazy as this sounds, I wouldn't have it any other way... mostly. haha!
Being a mama myself, I try to be flexible with my schedule and appreciate the understanding from parents as I navigate our medically complex son's needs as well as two active girls!
I offer discounts to siblings, love to work with groups that want to dance together online, and I am always willing to work with you on group discounts, multi-class discounts, and one-on-one private lessons!
