CHILDREN
Classical foundations. Creative minds.
Children's classes are organised by age so that the movement, music and teaching approach can develop naturally with them.
The foundation comes from classical dance technique, but children are not asked simply to repeat exercises.
They learn through rhythm, imagination, stories and creative movement.
A turn can become part of a journey.
A jump can become a character.
A sequence of steps can become a story the children create and remember through movement.
This helps children develop technique while keeping their natural curiosity and imagination alive.
Children develop
- Posture and alignment
- Balance and coordination
- Rhythm and musicality
- Classical dance foundations
- Jumps, turns and travelling steps
- Movement memory
- Spatial awareness
- Creativity and imagination
- Confidence
- Expression through movement
Children learn to remember choreography, but they also learn to think creatively with movement rather than simply reproduce it.
