Parents + Babies & Tots

*Looking for a special class for you and your baby? Parents Plus! Programs offer a wonderful bonding time through music and movement for parents plus their little ones! Developed by Linette Doherty, a professional dancer and a mom, these unique classes incorporate dance, physical conditioning, singing, and play into forty–five minutes that are as enjoyable for Mom and Dad as they are for baby. Dance is a fun way to keep fit and stay in shape, and play is important for healthy baby development. Everyone gets to be active in this class, and the atmosphere is fun…the babies won’t be the only ones giggling! *Parents + Babies is for Babies under 18 months. Movements set to baby friendly songs and nursery rhymes include gentle stretches for mom or dad, and encourage that special connection with your baby while toning core muscle groups.

Creative Movement
Dance > Creative Dance
*An energetic, fun filled introduction to music and movement! This class allows children to develop their imaginations as they learn to use their bodies to bring stories to life through movement and gestures. We use improvisation, games, props, and toys to learn the basics of dance technique. Children will develop a vocabulary for dance and an understanding of posture, alignment, rhythm, and musicality. Parents are invited to join in the first class of each term, and are always welcome to watch from the lobby as we turn into ballerinas, dinosaurs, or airplanes, and travel up to the sky, down into the ocean, or anywhere else our imaginations take us! *Children who have participated in the Parents + Tots class and are ready to start dancing on their own will be thrilled with this class just for them, and for those who aren’t quite old enough to begin formal dance training but can’t wait to get started, this is an excellent preparation for structured dance classes. *Everyone will also get a taste of being on stage by performing in short numbers with their teacher in both the Christmas show at the end of Term I, and the final year end show in June. FULL SCHEDULE: Wed 5:15–6:00pm Fri 3:30–4:15pm/5:30–6:15pm Saturday 9:15–10:00am/10:00–10:45amDate : 2013-01-14 to 2013-06-23

Each class begins with a warm up at the barre, and stretching. Students are introduced to basic ballet technique, including proper posture and alignment. Technique is reinforced through repetition in the centre.Date : 2013-01-14 to 2013-06-23

And it’s all set to the hottest sounds of today’s music. *Beginner classes introduce students to the fundamentals of jazz technique, and the emphasis is on FUN!

Beginner Musical Theatre
Music > Voice/Singing
*Creativity blossoms in this environment!

One of the best ways to learn is by doing, and in this class the emphasis is on the excitement of combining all these elements to create excerpts from Broadway style shows. *The class is divided into three half hour segments. The acting portion of the class uses drama games, improvisation, and scene work to prepare students for working with scripted material. In vocal classes, students learn some basic music theory, and technique, and the group dynamic provides the opportunity to work on harmonies and choral music as well. During the dance segment, we focus on choreography, and students will learn movement for the stage as well as some jazz style basics as we put the show together. *During casting, students are each given a part that highlights their strengths. *Performances take place in class in late October/early November, and at the Christmas show for Term I, with a second in class performance before March Break, and Term II culminating with the final year end show in June.Date : 2013-01-14 to 2013-06-23

Senior students must take class twice a week, due to the increasing demands of this level. A note on pointe: since everyone develops differently, some may take longer than others to acquire the skills and strength necessary for pointe. Students will be notified in writing when the teacher is satisfied that they are ready to safely meet the greater physical and technical challenges of pointe work.
