Tiny Dancers®

Come to our ballet recital on December 14, 2008!

Tiny Dancers® is a dance program specially designed for children ages 2–12. The curriculum features a ballet, tap, jazz, and hip-hop program that provides young dancers with an outstanding technical foundation in a fun and nurturing environment. Students are encouraged to learn through creative self-expression, exploration of movement, and age-appropriate choreography.

While the core emphasis is on classical ballet, tap, and jazz technique,Tiny Dancers uses choreographed stories and fairy tales — along with hundreds of custom-made costumes and props, as a teaching vehicle for dancers ages 2–5. Each week, the lesson plan is reinforced and brought to life as the students dance the adventures of An American Tale, re-enact Sleeping Beauty, or become the prince or princess in Cinderella.

As students master the fundamentals and mature as dancers, they graduate from fairy tales to a more intensive focus on technique, style, interpretation, and choreography. At each step we remain committed to providing the best dance education available by emphasizing positive self-esteem, technical excellence, and a love of the art of dance.

Tiny Dancers was voted the “Best Ballet Studio” by Washington Families Magazine in 2003, 2004, and 2005.
