OBSERVATION:
Parents,
friends and siblings are not allowed in the studio during class. The
dancer can be easily distracted, which can result in safety problems
»
CLASS PLACEMENT:
Dancers
are placed according to age and ability. If a child is more advanced,
a higher level class may be needed to strengthen the dancer’s
ability and to provide them with a challenge. In most cases, dancers
are grouped with children of the same age. A child is placed in a class
where he/she will feel confident in order to promote the highest level
of self-esteem. We request that you trust the staff’s years of
experience in the decision for class placement. As instructors we always
act in the best interest of the dancer. Dancers progress at different
levels and advancing a dancer before they are ready can create stress,
a loss of interest and discouragement.
