Experiencia de clase

In this ongoing class students will have opportunity to develop their dancing skills. 

This class is designed for 5 and 6 year old kids. Since they are no longer babies, but perhaps still not ready for highly structured lessons, I combine fun creative exercises with an introduction to ballet vocabulary, first ballet steps, as well as more sophisticated choreography. I love classical music and I believe early introduction promotes cognitive and aesthetic development. For example, I use "Carnival of Animals" by Camille Saint-Saens to explore energy, level, and tempo. How about jumping as a kangaroo, gliding as a fish in the water, walking as a heavy elephant - kids will have an opportunity to do it all in my class!

Every class will start with warm up exercises, then we will work on the basic ballet steps (floor barre, center), allegro part with jumps, and then creative dance elements.

Students will be performing dance compositions lead by a teacher. 

Students will have an opportunity to lead the class with his/her own choreography based on the steps just mastered in the class. 

Lesson plan is based on the standard for this age ballet syllabus:
Floor work:
Foot articulation - pointe and flex
Rotation - Parallel and turned out
Emphasizing on the "Tall ballet back"
Core work
Stretching

Center work:
Positions (feet, arms)
Plie (6th, 1st and 2 nd positions)
Plie / releve
Tendue (side, from)
Degage
Passe / Retire

Across the Floor:
Ballet runs in releve
Ballet walks
Flamingo walks
March
Skip
Gallops and chasse, front and side

Allegro part:
Sautes
Echapes (first to second) 
Leap over small object (example: a toy) on the floor

Here is a weekly plan for first four lessons:
1. 10/03/22 - Concentration on positions: arms, feet; posture and turn out
2. 10/10/22 - Working on plie and tendu technique
2. 10/17/2 - Working on leg-lifting technique
4. 10/24/22 - Working on cou de pie technique

In case you can not open ZOOM to sign in, please refer to the Helpline option "Cannot access the class". I open classroom several minutes prior to the start of the class to make sure my system works and assist parents within my abilities. Once class starts, I am busy teaching and all questions should be forwarded to the Helpline :)

Otros detalles

Orientación para padres
Dance exercise requires open safe space; comfortable clothing; ballet shoes are the best choice, if it is not available - non slippery socks or comfortable shoes. Kids should not be wearing long, many layered dresses, it will make their exercise difficult and uncomfortable. Camera - I would need to be able to see students legs and arms for timely corrections. Small soft toy will be used as a prop during lesson

About Me

Welcome! I’m passionate about bringing the joy of dance to students of all ages. I specialize in teaching preschoolers, beginners, and intermediate ballet using the Vaganova method.

My Background

I graduated from the prestigious “Young Muscovites” dance school in Moscow, where I was fortunate to train under renowned instructors from the Bolshoi Ballet and other esteemed dance companies like Moiseev Ballet and Beryozka. After two years as a professional dancer with the Moscow State Circus Ballet, I pursued a Master’s degree in Chemical Engineering at Moscow University, where I co-founded and coached the university’s dance group. I directed performances like “The Little Prince” and “Don Quixote,” nurturing my love for teaching.

In 1990, I relocated to the USA, where I discovered a vibrant dance community that allowed me to further refine my skills. My experience includes developing unique program for very young dancers, inclusive dance programs for students with special needs and creating classes for bilingual children.

When the world faced the challenges of COVID-19 in 2019, I pivoted to online teaching through the Outschool platform. Over the past four years, I've had the pleasure of guiding students from around the globe, helping them enhance their ballet skills and prepare for auditions—all from the comfort of their homes. My unique “Ballet Gymnastics” class, not commonly found in traditional schools, has empowered many students to excel

With generous permission of authors I am using the following music:
1. Songs written by Hap Palmer (great for various skills development)
2. Ballet class music performed by Jon Sarta, Nathan Fifield, Christopher Hobson
3. KIMBO EDUCATIONAL; songs from Rock 'N Roll Fitness Fun CD and All Time Favorite Dances

MY REFUND POLICY: I follow the Moderate Refund Policy. Once a month I can process a refund based on the special circumstances. I do offer dance classes which can be taken to make up for missed class: Character Dance, Floor Barre. There is an Outschool Happiness Guaranty program which families can address in certain cases. 

Although my required amount of students for class is 2-3 students, I often run class for one. If you are considering to take my class, please introduce it to your friends and family. 

Some students like to dress up for my classes. However, please make sure that kids wear clothing that is comfortable for exercise. Wearing many layered clothes like a ballroom dress may be challenging for children.

My ability to help with technical difficulties is limited especially once the class has started. If you are having challenges, please refer to the Helpline option "Cannot access the class."
