Our kids Ballet and Jazz class is for ages 8 to 12 years. This class introduces students to classical styles of dancing such as Jazz and Ballet. Learning techniques and cross training in other disciplines of dance helps students improve their flexibility, sense of rhythm, overall coordination, and strength.
Proficiency in styles such as Ballet and Jazz is important for Kids. Dancers learn basic dance terms such as plie, tendu, releve, eleve, battement, and more. At the same time they explore jumps, leaps, turns and other skills through parallel and turn out. Allowing them to apply these techniques to other genres of dance they are learning, and thus grow into well-rounded dancers.
The Class is taught by Will Walker, originally from Austin, Texas. This class includes a final recital piece in our Celebracion de Ritmos y Estilos in May.
