This course is an exploration of the basic elements of dance. Students learn the fundamentals of proper dance technique in modern, jazz, and ballet. They receive an introduction to dance styles such as hip hop, contemporary, and world dance, and learn to express their own creativity through self-choreographed works. In addition, students perform on stage! Classes include a full-body warm up, strengthening exercises, across-the-floor technique, and choreography. No prior dance training is necessary and all students with an interest in or any level of experience in dance are welcome. The Grade 6 Dance Ensemble performs at the Winter Dance Showcase.
