Ballet & Creative Movement - Ages 2 -5 (Family and Me)

A playful introduction to ballet through music, imagination, and movement! Each week blends beginner ballet steps with fun, themed activities like scarf dancing, bubble play, obstacle courses, and parachute games. Perfect for young dancers ready to twirl, leap, and explore the magic of movement in a joyful, supportive setting. Please note: This is Family & Me Class so family supervision is required Week 1

Butterfly Ballet

We’ll learn pliés and first position, then grab ribbon wings and float across the floor like butterflies. Class ends with a magical bubble dance — catching and twirling through bubbles as we move with the music.

Week 2

Tea Party Tendus

Dancers will practice tendus and pointed toes. We’ll practice tendus by pushing our toes along the floor like little trains leaving the station! Then we’ll take a “train ride” around the room — pointing toes, stretching legs, and stopping at movement stations to wiggle, freeze, and wave with our scarves.

Week 3

Rainbow Relevés & Parachute Play This week is all about relevés — rising up on our toes! We’ll tiptoe under the rainbow parachute, run beneath it, and practice balance as we stretch and lift with the music.

Week 4 Passé Parade & Obstacle Course We’ll introduce passé and work on balancing on one leg. Then it’s time for a ballerina obstacle course — dancing over dots, tiptoeing through cones, and leaping over “ponds” like graceful animals.

Week 5 Chassé & Scarf Dance Circus We’ll learn chassé (our galloping step) and become circus stars — using scarves to juggle, move like tightrope walkers, and swirl through a lively group routine under the big top. Week 6 Arabesques & Dance Party Celebration

We’ll learn arabesques — reaching one leg back and arms forward like soaring birds — then celebrate our final class with a creative dance party using scarves, bubbles, and all our favorite moves from the session. Class Times: Tuesdays 3:30 PM - 4:15 PM
