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. Classes will have maximum of 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 4yrs.
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 can arrange for provision of the basic uniform to participating children.
The Excel Dance School will cater for 4 different age groups ranging from 4 years old and upwards. Contact the Box Office on 062 80520 for further information
