Classes

Children

A caring and passionate atmosphere that fosters motivation, progress and self-confidence!

For ages 3: Body Awakening

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.

For ages 4 to 7: Awakening and Introduction to Dance

The discovery of mastery of movement in space, inspired by emotions and numerous playful situations, enables them to develop harmoniously.

Appropriate 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 for an effective approach to classical technique from the age of 8 (law of July 19, 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.

From the age of 8, students are perfectly prepared to join classes for classical ballet or contemporary dance.

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.
