A caring and passionate atmosphere that fosters motivation, progress and self-confidence!
Saturday at 11:45 a.m. (45mn)
This classes has been created for toddlers aged 3 to help them develop their body awareness and coordination in a fun way. Parents can be present at the beginning of classes to accompany their child towards independence.
The discovery of mastery of movement in space, inspired by emotions and numerous playful situations, enables them to develop harmoniously.
Suitable exercises enable children to hold their backs properly, adopt a good head carriage, and make their feet, hips and backs more flexible, so as to prepare them to tackle classical technique effectively from the age of 8 (law of July 10, 1989).
These classes programs also teach children self-control, respect, discipline and a sense of effort, all of which contribute greatly to their personal development.
At the end of classes d'Éveil and d'Initiation, students are perfectly prepared to join classes de classical ballet or de danse contemporaine.
They can then evolve, starting pointes from age 11-12, and diversify or intensify their practice.
With tap dance, children learn about music and rhythm, while dancing and discovering new musical worlds: jazz, blues, rock and Latin music.
From the age of 9, the most motivated students who wish to become more involved in dance can join the classes en horaires aménagés danse (CHAD) program, which is run by the Paris Marais Dance School's professional training program, in partnership with the Rognoni elementary school (Paris 5e), and then the collèges and lycées offering special timetables.
