Adaptive Dance Class | Wed. 5:30-6:15 | 5- 12 yrs | 4 Class Workshop |
$70.00
Wednesday's 5:30-6:15 dance class is designed for children who have special needs and may need more of a flexible working environment. We begin each class with a high energy warm up, followed by practicing using our bodies to work on a theme for the day through a routine. We then have some mat time to roll around and learn more about our bodies, finishing with Free dance. We set reasonable goals and this is why we have rewarded free style dance at the end of class. We have themes for the day (big moves vs small moves, switching sides, soft vs sharp) and incorporate these themes into small repeated routines.We make sure to try and stick as best we can to the schedule and identify after we have accomplished something before moving forward.I have been working with children with special needs for over 10 years in private and public dance environments and have seen the amazing growth that can happen through the power of dance. I also have a 5 year old niece who has found herself on the autism spectrum. This too has allowed me to watch her journey in therapy, at school, etc. I understand the journey that we are all on in finding out how our children can best come to boost there body awareness and connect with others. I also realize that every journey is different, so I do my best to take into account the particular needs of the child and the family.Overall, it is a High energy, explorative, rewarding, class where I hope every child can have fun while learning more about the body and feel how the act of dance truly touches the spirit.

Attire Recommended Styles:
Pink Tights ( Bloch T1935G Adaptatoe Elite Children's Convertible Tights)
Shoes ( Hanami 2037W Pink Ballet Slipper) runs very narrow for a wider foot (BunnyHop Slipper SO225G Pink)
Turquoise tank Leotard.Online purchase or example www.discountdance.com N5501C turquoise tank leotard
Boys: White ankle socks, White Ballet Slippers, white Short Sleeve Leotard
Ballet 1 is an introductory level that builds on the concepts of locomotion, body awareness, pathways, dance vocabulary, sequencing and a strong sense of anatomy. An 18 week curriculum is followed that bases each class on a strong concept of movement, space or the body and how it works. A twist on the traditional classical ballet class we will start each with a class with a vigorous series of locomotor movements across the floor, for example: skips, gallops, chasses, and prances. Ballet 1 digs deeper into the classical ballet vocabulary with a beginner barre , center floor and jumping sections of class. Peer to peer correction, French vocabulary and the use of musical terms such as ; Adagio, moderato, allegro, presto etc are all woven into the class for a full experience.
Teaching philosophy: I have a very strong philosophy of respect in the classroom. Student to teacher, Teacher to Student ,Students to each other, the space and the learning environment. Every student is an individual that learns in a unique way. My job as a teacher is to choose the best language and examples to create a stimulating and playful learning environment. I choose to eliminate negative words in the classroom like” No”,” not” or” wrong.” I believe in transparency. I crave an authentic and healthy relationship with both my students and their families.
