Our Kinder Program is designed for Boys & Girls ages 5-6. We offer 45 minute Kinder classes in Acro, Jazz & Tap and 30 minute connecting classes in Ballet, Hip Hop & Musical Theater. All Kinder classes will have a performance in the 2026 Recital.
​
Acro is based on safe and effective progressions in five areas; flexibility, strengthening, balancing, limbering and tumbling, similar to floor gymnastics.
​
Ballet is a Classical dance form demanding strength, grace and precision. Ballet is used as the foundation in all dance forms.
​
Hip Hop is best described as high energy and original. Strengthening and conditioning will help build a solid foundation for Breaking, Locking, Housing and more.
​
Jazz dance combines the technique of Ballet and Modern dance with the current forms of popular dance. Jazz has its own vocabulary ranging from isolations to the movement of the entire body. The Jazz curriculum includes stretching, jumps, rhythm and various styles of movement.
​
Musical Theater is a combination of dancing and acting, similar to what would be seen in musicals and Broadway shows. Dancers learn to incorporate a personality or story line into their dancing.
​
Tap is a percussive style of dance. Its name comes from the tapping sound made when metal plates on the dancer’s shoes touch the floor. Students will learn to understand rhythm and timing while working on footwork and agility.
