Workshops Children’s Workshop Courses Spring 2010
Each workshop engages young participants (age 3-8) in an afternoon of fun and culture that includes a craft, story time, dancing, and games. They are great introductions to the art of ballet and serve well to enrich the lives of young students, both dancers and non-dancers.
Children should wear comfortable attire (stretch/sweat pants and t-shirt or leotard and tights), bare feet or dance shoes. They will make a craft that coordinates with the ballet, and they will be read a synopsis of the ballet. They will also dance some of the male and female roles to the original compositions, as well as play games and have fun! Enrollment is limited to 5-15 boys and girls in each age group.
