Seventh grade Dance students will continue with the history and mechanics of dance. This class is designed to expand the child’s self knowledge, self discipline, and self expression. Students will continue to learn dance styles of Classical Ballet, Jazz, Modern, West African, Hip Hop and Social Dance. An emphasis will still be placed on proper body alignment, muscle control, expressive execution of steps, proper audience etiquette, dance history, Kinesiology (anatomy of dance) and vocabulary through traditional dance forms. All students will have the opportunity to perform throughout the school year.
