In collaboration with SCYC, Mancos Dance is pleased to offer a fully inclusive dance experience for 10 Mancos students in Grades 2-5. In this tap/jazz/ballet class, dancers will have the opportunity to develop skills in the essential jazz basics as well as dynamic tap rhythm and sequencing. Ballet rounds out the dance experience with classical technique taught in our signature model of play and metaphor coupled with proper vocabulary and placement. This class offers the full experience. Dancers will be walked from Chill Zone in the Performing Arts building to Mancos Dance. Parent pick-up will be at 6:30 at Mancos Dance.
This class follows SCYC scheduling. Dancers are encouraged to participate in the Mancos Dance recital and will receive 2 free tickets for family members.
