Love to perform? Are you ready to embark on an extraordinary journey through the captivating world of dance? Look no further than Jr. Company, the premier dance repertory company designed exclusively for children. Our carefully curated repertoire is designed to engage young dancers in a diverse range of styles, from classical ballet and contemporary to jazz and more. Through expert guidance and personalized attention, we empower our students to develop strong technique, master challenging choreography, and push the boundaries of their artistic potential all the while nurturing each dancer’s strengths and fostering a supportive environment for growth and teamwork. 

Students enrolled in Jr. Company will attend their weekly Jr. Company class on Mondays each week, as well as one additional technique class per week of their choice (included in Jr. Company Tuition), either in Hip-Hop, Jazz, Contemporary, or Tap dance. In addition to the technique class and their Company class, the dancers will also meet for an average additional 1-2 hours of rehearsals per week to learn solos and duets for our upcoming performances, getting personal coaching from our experienced dance staff.

Jr. Company performance opportunities include featured roles in our winter “Land of Sweets” production, our dedicated spring Jr. Company Showcase, performing in our Spring Recital, and various community events throughout the year.

Description:

2 – 3.5 years
A great introduction to ballet for a young dancer, this class focuses on learning the basic elements of creative movement while incorporating classical ballet shapes, vocabulary, and dance steps, and expanding the potential of each child’s gross motor skills.  The children will get an introduction to ballet terminology, all the while exploring their physical creativity through creative imagery, sing-along songs and classical music, dance props, and short choreographic combinations. Other skills practiced in this class: identifying body parts, musicality, level changes, balancing and movement coordination, shape formation, pathways, leading and following, and creative expression (This is a parent-transitional class. Parents and Guardians are welcome to participate in these classes, and our goal by the end of the school year will be to have all students adjusted to a drop-off activity.)
