The Arts - Dance  

The Dance class incorporates varied forms of dance. Depending on the grade, students learn Liturgical, Hip Hop, African, and/or Latin dances.

Additionally, students learn the fundamentals of balance, coordination, and rhythm. Dance also includes proper aerobic, stretching, and strengthening of the body as defined by NYS Physical Education standards.

Students will:
(1) identify and demonstrate movement elements and skills (such as bend, twist, slide, skip, hop)
(2) demonstrate ways of moving in relation to people, objects, and environments in set dance forms
(3) create and perform simple dances based on their own movement ideas.
