Full Year Program, 2025-2026 Dance Season

Classes Begin September 15, 2025


BDC’s Core Program continues in 4th and 5th Grades with Progressions. The Core Program is for those who aim to be well-rounded dancers, learning multiple styles. Electives are also available for this age group.


Core Program

Progressions

Progressions 1 - 4th Grade

Progressions 2 - 5th Grade

Progressions will meet twice weekly with the same core group. This class will provide dancers the repetition to maximize their ability to progress and become skilled, well-rounded dancers.

In Progressions, dancers will meet twice a week for an hour and a half at a time. Dancers will learn ballet, tap, and jazz. Their jazz class will include styles such as lyrical, contemporary, and hip hop. These dancers will perform at least 3 dances in the Recital.

A Note about Ballet: Ballet is an essential component to developing as a dancer. All technical work such as leaps, turns, kicks, extensions, and body control stem from ballet training. The necessary understanding of body alignment and isolations come from ballet training as well. Ballet allows dancers to quickly pick up the styles of jazz, lyrical, and contemporary.
