CREATIVE MOVEMENT
Ideal for children aged 3, Creative Movement introduces the basic elements of dance through simple repetitive instructions, role-playing, fun games, and rhythm exercises. This program is designed to help develop fundamental skills that will stay with your child for a lifetime. Students learn to work in a structured and musical environment where co-operation, participation, and social interaction are encouraged, and skills such as listening, co-ordination, concentration, and the ability to take direction are nurtured. BALLET 
In this classical form of
dance, emphasis is placed on rhythm, musicality, balance and proper body
alignment. The classroom structure includes barre work, stretching, centre
floor exercises, across-the-floor work, and intricate combinations; students
are instructed using classical ballet terminology. Ballet is the cornerstone
of dancing and its fundamentals can be found in all other forms of dance.
Ballet promotes self-confidence, focus, poise, and self-discipline.
Pointe classes are carried out in hard-toed shoes and follow the same
structure as ballet classes. Students may advance to pointe work only on the
recommendation of her ballet teacher.

A technical dance class
requiring agility, stamina and strength, Classical Jazz is a high-energy
form of dance performed to contemporary music. Classes begin with a guided
warm-up and stretch, which target muscle endurance and flexibility.
Exercises across-the-floor and at centre floor follow, and concentrate on
correct body alignment, showmanship, and precise technique. Short
combinations are taught and built upon week-to-week, which exercise the
students' proficiency at recall and execution.
