This class will be an introductory ballet class for children ages 4 -6. The goal is to introduce them to basic ballet concepts, technique, musicality + terminology while giving them an outlet to move around, and be amongst other kids.
Current Open Classes:
Time: Sundays at 10 am, Sept + Oct
Location: Inside Central Park, near the W 93rd st entrance.
Parents
I would ask that parents remain nearby during class - We'll designate some benches in the park for parents. Since I'm teaching without the benefit of a studio staff, it's good to have you there if something happens - if someone falls and gets a boo boo, has a bathroom emergency, etc.
I will ask that you don't interact too much with your children during class -no cheering - so they can focus on the material and be as present as possible. We'll invite parents over to watch the last bit of class each time, and students can perform a bit and take a bow!
Covid Protocols
Masking follows current CDC protocols for outdoors. I am fully vaccinated.
Students are encouraged to keep a reasonable distance (each having a yoga mat - their "spot" - will help)
Please do not send your child if they or a sibling are feeling unwell. The same goes for if they or a family have had a covid exposure. Best to err on the side of caution and keep everyone happy + safe!

Dress Code
Please send your child in clothing they feel comfortable moving in. If they have cute ballet clothing they want to wear - that's fine. If they want to wear a comfy shirt and leggings that's fine too. While I will be teaching some ballet technique, this is not a strict class environment.
Since we'll be outside, please make sure your child is wearing sneakers that will stay on.
Please bring a yoga mat for your child. It will be "their spot" and also allow them to sit down without getting too dirty.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out!
