在芭蕾舞團：從古典芭蕾舞學習舞蹈

Welcome to the Ballet! At the Ballet: Classical Ballet Dance Class will introduce your dancer to several age appropriate Classical Ballets. I will share a brief overview of what that day's ballet is about, and learners will get to share something they know related to the ballet. We will practice age appropriate dance movement, and use those moves to perform a dance to a song from the ballet!

Each class begins with the teacher sharing a brief overview of the day's ballet.
Then learners will get to share something related to the ballet - such as what they know about Cinderella or Sleeping Beauty, what their favorite sweet is, or if they have ever gotten to see a ballet, etc. 
We will then move into a warm up and stretch on the floor.
Next we will stand up and begin across the floor and center floor where we will learn ballet dance movement and terminology.
We will end class with performing a beautiful dance to a classical ballet song!
As always, if there is time at the end of class we may share one more time, or we will play a Princess themed game or Freeze dance.

*Schedule will continuously cycle back to the beginning after completion. *
