Imagine
this...
Today is Dance Day! Your tiny dancer steps into the sun-lit Cantril School for their first Ballet Exploration class. They are greeted by their instructor with a warm smile and a cheerful “Hello!” The bright studio is filled with friendly faces and toys, making your little one feel at ease.
The class begins with an imaginative warm-up in a circle where children interact with the instructor. Today the instructor is reading "Florrie Flamingo's First Ballet Class!" and has her pink flamingo stuffy to help her tell the story.
​
Next, the Dance Edventure truly begins. Your child and their friends explore the story through imaginative ballet exercises, learning the basics that Florrie Flamingo is learning in the story! Pliés, tendus, and pirouettes are more fun with Florrie and Friends!
​
The excitement continues with a themed obstacle course. Dancers perfect their new ballet skills by leaping over cones, tip toe walking down balance beams and twirling in hula hoops all with the help of their magic flamingo feathers!
​
As the class nears its end, your preschooler chooses a Florrie Flamingo flashcard, moving and dancing creatively as they dance and learn about the dance concept of action!
​
Finally, the class gathers in a closing circle. The instructor leads a cool-down routine, and children share their favorite part of the day. They receive a Florrie Flamingo coloring page to take home. With a final cheer and high-five, the class ends, and your child leaves with a smile, ready to share their ballet adventure with you.

Why Not
Twirl
into this Ballet
Experience?
Imagine, a ballet class where young dancers aged 3 to 5 twirl into the enchanting world of classical dance for the very first time. In Ballet Exploration, we introduce the grace and beauty of ballet through play-based adventures, guided by the enriching Dance to Learn® Curriculum. From whimsical warm-ups to story-driven skill exploration and an enchanting obstacle course that unveils a new narrative each lesson, every plié and pirouette is a step towards imagination and growth. As the class concludes with a free dance exploration, children express themselves freely, transported by the magic of ballet and their own boundless creativity. It's an immersive experience that cultivates poise, fosters confidence, and sets the stage for a lifelong love with ballet—exactly what your child's first ballet experience should entail.
