Class Descriptions...
“Parent Participation” Program Bring your littlest Shooting Star to participate in these classes with a parent or guardian’s
assistance. These classes may take place in the Indoor Playground or the Dance Studio.
“Kids” Program This program is designed to introduce your child to various forms of Dance and related Arts and makes the
transition from “Parent Participation” to student independent classes. Creative movement helps children learn many concepts and
is an important tool for developing self-esteem and body awareness. Classes are formed by age level, and class sizes are kept
small to promote a close relationship between student and teacher.
“Juniors” Program The “Juniors” program is for children enrolled in 1st grade and up. Class levels have been established to allow
new students into the program without effecting progress being made by students that have been enrolled. Age, ability, previous
dance experience, and teacher recommendation will all be considered when selecting the appropriate class for your child.
