Tap & Ballet (Gr. K-5) Register View Cart

K-2 Dancers
Our Tap and Ballet Combo classes are a favorite and are offered at multiple levels to suit a range of ages and abilities. Each class blends the fundamentals of both tap and ballet, providing dancers with a well-rounded introduction to rhythm, coordination, technique, and grace. 

Classes include warm-ups stretching, across-the-floor exercises, and a combination of ballet barre work and tap combinations. Students will also learn proper terminology and build confidence as they progress. 

Technique and content will advance with each level, ensuring appropriate challenge and growth. No experience is needed for beginner levels. To move up, dancers must complete a full season at their current level.

These combo classes are the perfect balance of skill-building and fun, offering an engaging environment where students can learn, grow, and shine. 

All dancers will need pink leather ballet slippers and black tap shoes

If you are unsure of your child(ren)'s placement, please email misscindy423@gmail.com for guidance.
