Pre-Ballet
Pre-Primary 1 (Kindergarten | Age 5)
Five year old students are ready for a more structured class and they begin to prepare for more formal ballet training. There is a focus on musicality and self-expression. Students are able to follow verbal and demonstrated instructions while facing the teacher. Experiencing a more structured class in a nurturing environment helps prepare your child for more formal ballet training. At the end of the school year students perform at CDS in a showcase for their families and friends.

"Participating in the Nutcracker was a wonderful experience, it was the first time I had ever been on stage or part of a big production."
