Dance Classes
Mission
Our goal is to offer a variety of dance classes to students from preschool age thru teen. We believe it is important for students to become involved in fun, physical activities and to learn the proper posture and techniques required for various types of dance.
Enrollment
Our dance classes schedule runs for the school year. Enrollment for recital classes is open until mid-December. These classes will perform in our annual Spring Dance Recital in May.
Ballet
We offer Angelina Ballerina Ballet classes for our preschool ballet students ages 3-5yrs. These classes are a specially designed program based on the Angelina Ballerina books and are 45 minutes long. Beginning ballet classes are offered for ages 6-11yrs. They are 1 hour classes that include instruction on technique and progressions of movement.
Wasilla Music & Dance Center's ballet program combines high quality artistic training with the basics of dancer health and child development. Our teachers use comprehensive set of age-appropriate, outcome-based guidelines to provide the highest quality ballet training to dance students of all ages and skill levels.
As the student grows, classes continue to focus on building a solid foundation in ballet technique with an emphasis on proper placement and safe progressions of movement. All while remaining sensitive to the developmental needs of younger dancers and having fun!
Non-Ballet Dance
For those students who want to explore other types of dance, we offer Jazz, Tap, Modern & Combo classes.
