CHILDREN'S CLASSES
DANZA offers formal, quality training year-round to students ranging from ages 3-16. The Children's Program requires a placement class, and a year long commitment. Students will then be assigned a level and schedule. DANZA follows a graded syllabus under the renowned ABT curriculum. Advancement to each continuous level is decided by teacher and school director with evaluation in class throughout the year.
BALLET
Here at DANZA, classical ballet--the foundation of all dances, is our focal point. Prepare to be impressed as your child flourishes into a true dancer before your very eyes. Through formal training, students will learn classical ballet vocabulary, classroom structure, etiquette, combine correct technique with artistry, proper and safe progressions of movement while concurrently attaining self-confidence, discipline, and the connection between outer & inner strength.
Ballet turns hard work into talent, challenges into rewards, peers into lifelong friends, and dreams into reality. Come dance with us today!
Ages 5+
LITTLE FEET
The joy of dance begins with a child's first steps in a fun and nurturing environment.
Ballet is introduced to our youngest of dancers by using props, video clips, books, and music, in which the students explore movement and storytelling. Students learn to connect imagery with movement and begin to develop coordination and listening skills that'll stress the joys of movement, music, and imagination!
Ages 3-4
POINTE
Pointe shoes---the magical moment when students experience another part of the dance world, an extension of their ballet training, adding to the aesthetic of their dancing. Learn how to shop for, sew, care, and break-in shoes.
Not only do the feet and ankles need to be strong enough, but alignment, turnout, back and abdominal muscles must also be in order to stand on pointe correctly without the risk of injury. Students will be individually evaluated with qualification upon approval of school director only.
Ages 12+
CONTEMPORARY
Contemporary class will introduce students to grounded movement and will incorporate improvisation. They will learn fall and recovery concepts, how to play with gravity in order to move efficiently through space, and discover pathways in their bodies to enter and leave floorwork with ease. Through these movement philosophies, students will be able to approach any dance style and movement practice in a dynamic, mindful, and expressive way.
This class will challenge students and enhance their ballet technique by helping them develop into well-rounded dancers.
Ages 9+
