PRE-JUNIOR
Our Pre-Junior classes (ages 5–6) are where dancers begin to build a strong and confident foundation in their training.
At this stage, we place a gentle but intentional focus on technique, particularly in Ballet, where dancers are introduced to foundational principles inspired by the Vaganova method. In Jazz and Tap, we follow the ADAPT syllabus, while Acro classes introduce skills through the Acrobatic Arts program—helping dancers develop strength, coordination, and control.
For dancers who show interest and readiness, this level also offers the opportunity to begin exploring examination pathways and a more structured approach to training.
Whether your dancer is here for fun, confidence, or future growth, our Pre-Junior program supports each child at their own pace—building skills, discipline, and a love of dance along the way.
PDE supports competitive dance training at this level.
Please sign up for all sessions individually and be aware of session dates, found below the class name.
