Creative Movement (Ages 3-5) 9AM -10 AM. In this class, we’ll use fun games and movement activities to foster creativity and nurture a love of dance, while building the basic skills and dance steps to prepare for Ballet I. No experience required. Loose, comfortable dance clothing, and your choice of shoes (ballet or jazz shoes).

Ballet I (Ages 6-8) 10:15 AM- 11:15 AM. This is a discovery class for students with little dance experience – we’ll have fun learning basic barre exercises, the five ballet positions of the arms and feet, correct alignment, and creative short combinations. Through ballet, we’ll inspire a love of dance and the art of movement! Any color leotard, pink tights, ballet shoes, and optional skirt.

Ballet II (Ages 9-14) 12:00 PM – 1:30 PM. As we learn more advanced ballet concepts, we’ll apply a passion for dancing to the discipline of technique. We’ll learn about center work (freestanding movements), then put the steps together into longer combinations across the floor. This is a great class for slightly older dancers, or dancers with some experience! Any color leotard, pink tights, ballet shoes, and optional skirt.

Modern/Lyrical (Ages 6-13) 1:45 PM – 3:15 PM. This class will blend modern (spontaneous and grounded) with lyrical dance (expressive and interpretive). We’ll learn fundamental modern techniques, as well as alignment, movement, and creativity. From lyrical dance, we’ll express ourselves through freedom of movement and improvisation. This is a great class by itself, or the ideal way to complement Ballet I or II! Any color leotard, your choice of pants (leggings, shorts, or jazz pants), and your choice of shoes (jazz shoes or bare feet).

LOLA is excited to offer youth dance classes this summer! The philosophy of the program is to offer exposure to the art of dance through classes that teach students about movement, balance, and creativity. Taught by dance teacher Christal Schermeister, a past LOLA Arts Summer Dance Class participant, students will leave the program with a new found strength in their values, body, friendships, and character.
