Dance
 
Welcome to my Classroom
Your child will experience dance as a performing art.  They will learn to move with expression by learning the techniques of Modern Dance, Ballet, Jazz and use tools such as Improvisation to develop their own movement style.  Each child will develop a kinesthetic awareness through basic dance princles such as alignment, strength and flexability. 
 
MY CLASSROOM MISSION: Give all children the opportunity to experience Dance!
