Class Experience

In this Primary ballet class, both girls and boys enjoy exploring ballet in an exciting and imaginative class. Students will work on improving strength, coordination, musicality, and creativity, while building a solid foundation in ballet technique. 

Students will dance all together for most of the class, but will practice dancing one by one at certain times. As a registered Royal Academy of Dance (R.A.D.) ballet instructor, Mrs. Watters will teach students steps and exercises from the Pre-Primary and Primary R.A.D. syllabi. The Royal Academy of Dance is the largest ballet teaching organization in the world and provides a framework for learning ballet that is both engaging and developmentally appropriate for young dancers. This methodology has a one-hundred-year history of training both recreational and professional dancers world-wide.

Students can repeat this course because, although the concepts at this level remain the same, the exact exercises are varied.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
Parents will not participate but please make sure a parent or other responsible adult is nearby supervising the student. Dancers should have a clear space where they can move around safely.
Supply List
1) Students need to wear clothes that they can move in. For footwear, ballet shoes are best, but are not required. Jazz shoes will work and socks are okay as long as your floor is not too slippery. If you have a slippery floor, then bare feet are better than socks. 

2) Dancers should have a clear space where they can move around. When choosing a spot for your learner to dance, try to find a place where your device can show them in camera view head to toe.

3) Dancers should bring two props to every class: a small stuffy and a piece of ribbon 12 - 24 inches (30 to 60 cm) long
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
