Tap-Ballet

Cinderella, Jasmine, Pocahontas, and more…our “Tap-Ballet” class is the perfect combination class for Tap and Ballet. The class is divided with 20 minutes of tap and 25 minutes of ballet. Since ballet is the basis for all dance technique, the combinations of both work hand in hand. The technical training is taught through ballet, which in turn helps teach the proper shifting of weight and patterns in movement for tap. Since children naturally respond to music and movement, all of the activities are executed to fun music. This class is for ages 3-5 and will meet on Tuesdays.
