CLASSES

Tippy Toes Classes

 
Dance classes for children who have not yet started school, aged three & up.

Your child will think our classes are great fun. 

You'll know that we're developing their coordination, learning skills, group skills and musicality.

Our Structured Syllabus comprises:


Ballet
Develops both good posture and forms the foundation of basic dance technique.


Jazz
Lively and energetic jazz teaches coordination and fast reactions while injecting a healthy dose of fun into the class.


Drama
Stories and make-believe take an important role in dance development. Drama through voice, face and movement is encouraged to develop confidence and self esteem.

 

Musicality
Through the Tippy Toes syllabus, children are exposed to a variety of music including classical, pop and nursery rhymes. Students develop a wide musical appreciation and build awareness of both tempo and rhythm.

  • Do I need to put my name down on a list?
    You don't need to, just come along & try a class. Classes are normally limited to 20 students & are not full at the beginning of the year. If you'd feel more comfortable putting your name down on a list, please complete an Enrolment Form & mail or fax it to us. We'll put your name down & send you a confirmation via email or SMS.
  • What should be worn to a trial class?
    Please don't buy any dancewear until you've tried the class. To try the class, just wear clothing that is comfortable to move in. For Tippy Toes; Dress-ups are great. We're used to seeing fairies & even superheroes. For Ballet & Contemporary; T-shirt & leggings or tracksuits with barefeet. For Jazz; T-shirt & leggings or tracksuits with sneakers. If you're happy with the class & wish to continue, then please purchase the appropriate uniform. Links to Uniform information: Tippy Toes Ballet Jazz & Contemporary
  • Can parents watch the classes?
    You are absolutely welcome to watch the first lesson that your child attends. For Tippy Toes classes, this is normally a necessity to ensure that child & parent are both comfortable! For subsequent lessons, parents won't be in the room. This is not to be unkind to parents, it's because the students focus better without having parents & siblings in the room. For Tippy Toes classes, it sometimes takes two or even three lessons with the parent in the room before the child is comfortable. Over the years, we've become skilled at keeping child & parent happy when joining our classes.
