Ballet & Lyrical Fusion
This is an introductory class that combines the grace and structure of traditional classical ballet with the musicality and elements of jazz found in contemporary lyrical dance. During this class, dancers will learn traditional ballet technique, positioning, and execution. They will also learn simple lyrical dance choreography that uses their ballet skills while also allowing them to learn how to connect with music and use their bodies to convey emotion. Dancers should wear either ballet shoes (with straps instead of laces, if possible), pirouettes (lyrical shoes), foot undies, or non-slip socks. Attire: Loose-fitting clothes are recommended. Leotards, tights & tutus are welcomed, but not required.

Ages: All
