By the Senior Beginner stage (ages 7-9), dance students are more ready than ever to learn from their teacher. She is their ultimate pattern, the very best dancer in the world, and their greatest encourager.
With her help, they can do it!
This age group is also ready to focus more on proper position and body control.
Lots of time at the barre begins to result in the classic lines of a dancer.
And once this step is underway, young dancers begin to fly!
They explore jazz and learn the proper technique for body rolls …
… and gain strength in their leaps.
Now that they are in better control of their bodies, they can stretch more fully and dance with greater abandon.
Soon they realize they only thought they’d been having fun in dance class before. This is the good stuff!
Footsteps School of Dance may be just the place to perfectly position your child for a love of dance. Check them out!
May my tongue sing of Your word, for all Your commands are righteous.
May Your hand be ready to help me, for I have chosen Your precepts.
Psalm 119:172-173
Makes me want to move too!
Laurie, your pictures of the dancing class made me want to dust off my dancing shoes which still fits. However, the tu-tu needs to be doubled at least! Your pictures were great and captured the fun and enjoyment the girls were having. You are truly the expert and a blessing.
