Spring After School Studios
IMAGINATIVE MOVEMENT Ages 3 - 1st Grade Tuesday • 3:35 - 4:05 PM Ms. Crystal Sorrow This class will embrace many aspects of dance, theatre, music, and movement. Students will learn basic stretches, movements, choreography, tumbling, and yoga poses. This class will be very interactive with children developing dance moves in an often improvisational style, encouraged by planned music or stylistic props. Classmates will encourage each other, laugh together, move together, and learn physical confidence. The goals in this class are to reduce shyness, encourage self-esteem, and establish freedom within self-expression. This class acknowledges that just as we all move differently we can all move confidently. Classes will also include mask making, the use of rhythm instruments, the use of poetry and story with dance, and other extensions that incorporate theatrical elements. Large movement props such as a parachute, hula-hoops, jump ropes, and bean bags will also be introduced and used to develop new physical skills.

The elementary students will develop confidence and leadership skills as the younger students learn proper techniques that are being modeled by the older students. There will be no extra cost if your child participates in two sessions. Elementary students will be placed in groups depending on musical skill and behavior demonstrated during rehearsals. If your answer is YES to the following questions, then the vocal ensemble studio is for you!
Do you love to sing? Can you carry a tune? Are you able to move to the beat of the music? Do you have dramatic expression? Do you love bringing joy to others through the performing arts?
Students will be exposed to a wide variety of musical styles and genres in vocal ensemble. In addition to singing, some compositions will lend itself to great choreography and dramatic presentations. Most importantly, students learn how to work as a team and develop self-confidence as they work towards a common goal. Classes Begin:
