Budding Ballerinas & Tiny Tappers
Syllabus 1: 18 months – 3 years
This syllabus sees the introduction of very basic ballet movements to orchestrated, percussion and nursery-based music. With you as parent/guardian by their side, children develop confidence, manners and have fun in a safe and caring environment. Simultaneously, your prince or princess will begin to demonstrate contrasting arm/finger dynamics, stretched feet and basic co-ordination. Tiny Tap sees the introduction of basic tap footwork, also to orchestrated, percussive and nursery-based music. Your child will begin to demonstrate feet that are more co-ordinated in terms of articulation, basic co-ordination, a very basic understanding of a rhythm 'type' and different movement dynamics. These classes are irresistible to both children and adults!

Syllabus Two: 3 – 4 years
This programme sees a progression from Syllabus One in that - although having fun and developing confidence and social skills are still very much at the forefront of the Princess Ballerina mantra - the beginnings of basic ballet steps and movements are explored in greater depth than Syllabus One. Children are encouraged to take a more independent role, with parents now able to sit at the side/s of the studio, if they wish. Your little one will begin to explore the space around them, co-ordinate the simultaneous movement of two body parts, and develop a greater understanding of their ever-blossoming social skills and classroom etiquette.
