Preparatory Division

Designed for our youngest dancers, ages 2-5, the Preparatory Division classes offer an introduction to movement and seek to nurture a love for dance. With an emphasis on developing motor skills, coordination and musicality, they are the perfect building blocks towards more formal study. Classes are held in 5-week sessions throughout the school year.
