In addition to our full schedule of classes in our studios, Claire School of Dance provides dance classes onsite at satellite locations through our partnership with Cathedral House Montessori School, Grace Day School, and St. Matthew’s Mother’s Day Out.
The Claire School of Dance offers students ages 3 through 5 classes designed not only to introduce children to dance concepts and prepare them for formal dance studies but to enhance their overall development. Listening skills, patience, and taking turns are taught along with fundamental dance principles such as lifted backs, strong ankles, tempo, and awareness of space. Imaginations too get a workout – every lesson includes an opportunity for children to make up their own dances.
Based in part on the National Training Program of the American Ballet Theatre (in which Ms. Claire is a certified instructor), classes with the Claire School of Dance are a first step into the joy of movement.
Schedule
Friday afternoons.
Tuition

Attire is any outfit in which the child can move freely. Leotards and dance skirts are also permitted. Children will dance barefoot or in stocking feet.
