CLASS LEVELS
These levels are guidelines, not absolutes, to suggest for whom the class is geared. The first 2 weeks of class will be an evaluation period. The instructor then may suggest that the dancers move to a more appropriate level if need be. Students remain in their appropriate level until they have reached a degree of competency with the curriculum. The instructor will recommend when students should proceed to the next level. Students & parents are welcome to discuss level placement with the instructor.
Level I: These are beginner classes for students with limited experience in the curriculum. Provides the student with complete fundamental training based on traditional dance technique. These classes will focus on the basic positions and body alignment.
