EXCEL
DANCE SCHOOL
|
|
The Excel Dance School (for boys and girls) will run from September to June each year ( 3 terms ) in line with the school year. Ballet Teacher, Linda Colligan will run classes with a maximum of 16/20 children per class that ensures each child gets the necessary attention to improve their technique.
|
A combination of Ballet and Modern Theatre Dance for each group will be taught that will involve:
Dance styles and steps;
Music and rhythm;
Dance structure;
Co-ordination Skills;
Performance Technique.
Participation will encourage confidence and self-expression as well as individuality within a structured environment and is open to all children from the age of 5yrs.
|
| Students with particular ability will be encouraged to take examinations in ballet at the end of the year but the focus will be on participation and enjoyment rather than just examination. Children will have the opportunity to participate in a sharing/show at Christmas and may also get an opportunity to participate on stage at the Excel with professional touring productions where appropriate.
|
| Uniform will be worn by all children participating in the school of dance. The Tipperary Excel will provide the basic uniform to each participating child. Other items can be purchased through Tipperary Excel.
