IF YOUR LITTLE ONE LOVES TO MOVE, THIS IS THE PLACE FOR THEM
Mini Elite is an inviting, exciting and creative program designed for children aged 2-5. This is an opportunity for every little one to explore the magic of movement and music in a safe and welcoming environment. Our range of Mini Elite classes will teach each student basic dance movements, musicality, co-ordination and most importantly confidence. Classes offer a range of dance styles including Ballet, Jazz, Hiphop and Tap. The students will have the opportunity to showcase their development at various Elite Elevation concerts, performances and showcases throughout the year.
WHAT DO CLASSES INVOLVE?
MINI BALLET
Our Mini Ballet class is a 30-minute creative journey where children are guided through exercises, activities and games derived from basic ballet teachings. Children will be guided through a calming warm up and stretch session that will flow into basic ballet exercises. Ballet is a discipline and must be taught correctly. To lead our mini ballerinas in the right direction for further growth in the style, exercises will be taught in a way that allows each student to learn the correct terminology, positions and movement in a way that is fun and engaging. Throughout the lesson, the use of equipment such as fairy wings, rainbow ribbons, bubbles and feathers will allow the mini ballerinas to explore their imagination.
​
MINI MOVERS
Our Mini Movers classes are structured to include elements of Jazz, Hip hop and Tap and will run for 45 minutes. Classes are programmed in a way that all mini movers can explore their love for dance and music while developing basic movement skills, musicality, coordination, and dance terminology. Our Mini Movers will begin each class with an upbeat warm up, followed by a light stretch. The children will then be guided through their Jazz and Hip hop style, exercises and dance pieces. Props such as pom poms and rainbow ribbons may be used during this time to keep children engaged, explore their imagination and develop their coordination even further. This section of the class will take up the first 20 to 25 minutes of the lesson. It will then be time for the Mini Movers to pop on their tap shoes and begin developing their tap skills.
To finish out the class children will sit down with their teacher and participate in some musical instrument activities and/ or a group game.
