About the Course
Our mix classes are where we introduce our formal ballet, contemporary and tap dance teaching in once combined class and are the perfect follow up to our Diddy Dance class. Children can join our mix classes once they have started school.
We have 3 levels of mix classes depending on age and ability, sometimes we will combine levels depending on numbers, but each student will be learning age- and skill-appropriate steps within the class.
Mini Mix is for our 4 year olds. This class teaches the basics of ballet and tap and introduces the creative aspects of contemporary dance
Midi Mix is for slightly older students, usually age 6+, and builds on the skills already learned in Mini Mix
Mega Mix is for our older (approx age 8+) or more experienced students who are able to demonstrate good technique in their ballet and tap and are ready to develop their contemporary dance skills more formally
What do we do in class...
All classes will usually split the time evenly between all 3 styles, however, on occasion we will focus on one or two styles if we are trying to reach a certain goal, like a specific skill, performance or medal test.
Classes will usually start at the barre for our warm up and technical exercises before moving into the centre for our stagecraft and performance skills. Students will get breaks during the class to change shoes, have a drink and comfort breaks.
At the end of each class we will gather for our reverence (our curtsey or bow) and thank everyone for joining together for the class.
