Designed especially for ages 3–5, this playful class focuses on building coordination, confidence, and listening skills through imaginative movement and basic ballet and tap technique. Dancers will explore foundational tap steps like toe taps, heel digs, and shuffles while also building ballet-based skills such as balance, posture, and graceful movement. Through upbeat music, imaginative games, and storytelling, children learn to create rhythm with their feet while developing control and confidence in their bodies. Dancers will only need tap shoes for this class. Required Supply List Footwear Tap Shoes: Any color and style are welcome First Class Note: You do not need tap shoes for the first class.
