Ballet School Viewing

Miss Mary Longwell, Delta’s own Ballet School Director, offered a semester end viewing of her dance classes last week.

On Saturday, 12-30-06, parents of enrolled students were invited to view the young ballerinas demonstrate their progress during the 9 week session.
The goal of the viewing was to show to parents, not only individual progress, but also what is involved to lay the foundation for what ultimately may result in excellence and appreciation of the beauty of ballet.

Classes presenting to parents included creative dance (pre-ballet for 4 and 5 year olds), beginning ballet, introduction to ballet, teen creative ballet and ballet training. The “ballet year” consists of 3 semesters, a summer camp, and a dance recital.

Classes will begin again during the week of January 15th. Schedules may be determined at mandatory registration on Saturday; January 13th, from 2 to 6 PM at the studio located in the Jarvis West Building. Please see the Delta News Web for details.
