Ballet

Ages 3-5
This is a structured program designed for the early development of technical ballet and
movement. It meets the needs and limitations of preschool aged children by providing a carefully paced sequence of exercises to develop physical conditioning with poise
and grace. Since children naturally respond to music and movement, the activities are
presented through music. In the program, children will learn self-discipline, listening skills, coordination skills, left and right discrimination, patterns in movement and pre-ballet.

Parent Performances lead up to Spring Recital. Costumes provided.
