Dance Classes for Children in Wellington, FL
This is where technique really takes shape!
Our 9–11 year old dancers can explore Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Lyrical, and Acro while building strength, flexibility, and control. We encourage taking more than one class, as each style develops different skills and helps dancers grow into well-rounded performers. Along the way, students continue to build confidence, teamwork, and respect—growing not just as dancers, but as people.
Dancers in this age group have several options to choose from: including, Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Lyrical and Acro. We believe taking more than one class per week mentally and physically strengthens the dancer. The more training you have in movement, the more you CAN move! During class, we teach Leadership, Respect, and the Importance of Kindness, along with others. “Good Human” attributes!
We emphasize Confidence, Kindness, Teamwork and so much more in our built-in Leadership programs at Vantage Pointe!
