Creative Movement (3-5 years) is a playful introduction to ballet fundamentals through storytelling and imagery. This class encourages self-expression and confidence while teaching basic ballet etiquette and French terminology. With flexible dress code options, it’s perfect for children who thrive in a creative and supportive environment.
Pre-Ballet (4-5 years) This engaging class introduces young dancers to the joy and structure of classical ballet in a nurturing and imaginative environment. Designed for children who are ready for more routine and focus, Pre-Ballet 4–5 blends creative movement with foundational ballet technique. Students will explore musicality, rhythm, spatial awareness, and basic ballet terminology through age-appropriate exercises and games. The class introduces elements of traditional ballet structure—such as warm-up, center work, and simple jumps—while encouraging self-expression through storytelling, pantomime, and improvisation. With a consistent dress code and a focus on ballet class traditions, this level helps build confidence, coordination, and a love for dance, preparing students for the transition to more formal training in the Primary level.
