Pre-School Classes
The main objective in the Pre-school classes is for the teacher to gain the children’s confidence and get them to want to please. Once this has been established the children move on rapidly.
The exercises in this class are formulated to encourage their gross and fine motor skills through leading, following a pattern, basic rhythms, taking turns, performing in front of each other using song, dance and stories to achieve 45 minutes of fun and enjoyment for all.
The first 15 minutes is tap dancing, where they explore soft and loud movements and using their feet to create rhythms. This is followed by 30 minutes of ballet orientated movement encouraging grace and poise as well as the above mentioned skills.
Parents have found these classes to be extremely beneficial to this age group prior to starting school. We have extensive experience with this age group and feel that it is imperative their first introduction to dance and music be enjoyable. For this reason we are happy for parents to stay with their child until they are happy to attend without them.
