MS2223 – SATURDAY 12:00PM | POM PEP PREP (Ages 8+)

$350.00 $255.00

WHAT IS POM PEP PREP?
Is a beginner pom class for 8-11 year old students that teaches sharp movements with poms, which blends jazz technique, turns, and leaps with strong arm positions. This exciting class will consist of cheer and dance team technique including pirouettes, toe touches, leaps, pom placement, safe stunts and more. Pom Pep Prep is not a cheer class, but rather a dance class that teaches dance combinations to integrate into pom squad routines.  Students will learn several sideline and pom routines through the season to help them prepare for a cheer and/or dance team future. These pre-choreographed routines will help prepare your child for future performances on the sidelines - or the end of the year recital! Complete with poms, bow, sparkles, and more – This class will be a fun and perfect fit for your aspiring dance team member or cheerleader!

BENEFITS: Team building, showmanship, precision, coordination, strength, endurance and self confidence

WHAT TO WEAR?
At Reach, it is very important to be dressed appropriately for each dance class you take! Just like you wouldn't wear a tutu to soccer practice, we would prefer you save your soccer uniform for the field! Likewise, the same thing you wear to jazz class may not be appropriate for ballet class. Dressing appropriately gives dancers confidence! It helps teachers better see body lines so they can help you become the best dancer you can be.

REACH DRESS CODE + SHOE REQUIREMENTS FOR JAZZ CLASS:

Jazz shorts or leggings + fitted top: cami, leotard, or tank. No baggy clothing. Hair pulled up. Cross trainers.


DANCERS AGES 8-11 - WILL GET THE MOST OUT OF CLASS WITH AN ADDITIONAL BALLET OR JAZZ TECHNIQUE CLASS
This will be the only season a technique class is not required to attend this class. Technique classes are imperative in order for the students to move beyond the basics, allowing instructors t0 focus fully on routines and required cheer and dance team technique.



REACH FOR THE BARRES  is a studio specializing in the development and needs of today’s young dancer with non-competitive nurturing dance classes gently encouraging your child’s self esteem with age appropriate expectations and the joy of dance. We are focused on putting the FUN in Fundamentals and the Foundations of dancing!

Our program is based upon multiple-class lessons which we believe offers the best opportunity for children to learn, improve upon and combine new skills and routines, develop their dancing abilities and improve their mind, body and soul. We focus on teaching the whole child with developmentally appropriate programs, as well as age appropriate dancing, music, and attire.  Our children grow up so fast, and we want to remove the pressure and competition, and give them more moments, to create, explore, and dancing like no one is watching.

Our mission is to offer an alternative to traditional dance studios, one that looks at teaching from an innovative and conceptual approach with dance education, keeping it simple and stress free, and allowing kids to just be kids, opening a door for dancers to fall in love not just with the performance but with the dance itself.



 

Our main season runs like a 9-month, academic calendar, which simply means students enrolled in September are guaranteed their spot in class for our entire season as long as your account remains in good standing.
