CLASS DESCRIPTIONS
All classes meet once a week for 45 minutes either in-studio or outdoors under the Pavilion at the JCC.
Students are placed according to their age as of September 1, 2022.

Next Steps
(Ages 18 months to 2)
Next Steps is the perfect transitional class for young children who are becoming more independent. Parents, grandparents or caregivers are still able to join the fun in this sensory-rich movement experience that keeps children engaged with stories, dance games, rhythm, and songs while learning new skills. As the year progresses, the aim is to slowly withdraw parent involvement so children are ready to take on Creative Dance with confidence and excitement.

Creative Dance
(Ages 3)
The Creative Movement curriculum has been taken outside! Creative Dance continues the class structure introduce in the younger level in a safe outdoor environment, and instills the physical and emotional confidence to explore and create independently. Classes are narrative in nature as students are led through a series of movement stories and ballet-based activities that appeal to both girls and boys. Social skills are also developed through collaborative and cooperative games.

Creative Ballet
(Ages 5)
Creative Ballet is a perfect balance of ballet basic’s and creative dance. Children are developing their technique, gaining body awareness and refining basic skills, while still having imaginative and creative dance experiences. They are taking a more active role in their own learning, acquiring the tools to collaborate, choreograph and exchange ideas with their peers. Students advance through Creative Ballet ready to step into the more structured world of Pre-Ballet.
