Our programs begin with pre-dance classes. These classes are specifically designed to inspire creativity and artistic expression at an early age, to feel beautiful and to dance for the joy of moving to the music. We use a wide variety of musical styles to capture the many feelings/expressions of dance. Children in this program begin to understand music and self-expression. Our goal with this age is to share the joy of movement with music and to give them a very positive environment to experiment and have fun!
Moving into beginner level classes, we begin to specifically define the movement and the technique of each individual dance style that dancers pursues. At this age, we want dancers to carry themselves well with good posture, grace, style and class. Dancers will begin to add more complex dance steps to their training but still focusing on artistic expression.
Our intermediate level dancers maintain their artistic expression and carry themselves with confidence. At this level, technique becomes a priority. Dancers begin to focus on proper alignment, positions are precise and dancers will begin to learn more complex progressions and choreography. Students are encouraged to develop their flexibility outside of the class room by practicing at home. At this level we progress fairly quickly. Our program is specifically designed to help students advance and learn in an efficient way.
Adult Classes were designed to provide dancers of all levels the opportunity to begin or continue in the art. Classes are taught in an organized manner being certain that no one is left behind.
Paris’ Dance Academy is a place filled with love. It is a place your dancer can grow and have a great time! Building a positive character in a happy, wholesome environment is what our mission and passion is and will always be!
