During Foundation Years, we aim to create a balance of basic physicality and creativity. We aim to build confidence in children gradually opening them to basic skill sets, exercises, posture correction and the skill to communicate their artistic intent. We create an environment where students are engaged and motivated while dancing simultaneously appreciating the benefits of dance as part of a healthy active lifestyle.
During Preparatory Years, after their basic foundational training, we assist students in improving their knowledge about the field and giving them compositional tools to make movements on their own, with a partner and in small groups. The control, transition and coordination in their bodies are of utmost importance which would ultimately continue to raise the standards of dance in our school. We explore different movement vocabulary with students to know their direction of interest.
During their Middle Years, the students continue to develop their skills and understanding of diverse cultural traditions. Teamwork and collaboration with other subjects also continue to be important points of focus. We build on their different field of interest in dance and introduce them to the concept of full-length productions. We encourage our students to write and create movement on their chosen concepts in collaboration with different other mediums of art for better presentation.
In Senior Years, students focus on their chosen dance style and continue to develop their skills in that particular dance form. We also develop their knowledge of human body anatomy to prevent injury while self-practice. We would promote students to acquire theoretical knowledge of their chosen dance form. Creation and presentation are again the main focus where students of different fields of art come together in groups to create their collaborative performances.
