The Orlando Ballet is passionate about sharing the joy of dance with people of all ages, physical abilities, and skill levels. As such, we will be offering four classes in total: Gentle BeMoved™, BeMoved™, First Steps™, and S.T.E.P.S.™
This is a fantastic opportunity to get moving in big ways and small, and to learn and grow in community together. More information on each program can be found below.
BeMoved™ inspires participants to embrace dance and fitness as a path to health, joy, and fulfillment. The course is carefully designed to deliver a safe, body-friendly movement experience and is intended for ages 14 and up. Classes will be taught by talented certified instructors from the Orlando Ballet: Krista Ledden, Marlena Abaza, and Shane Bland.
Classes meet once a week on Mondays from 3:30-4:30 p.m. beginning January 23, 2023.
Gentle BeMoved™ is designed to improve strength, balance, and flexibility and is tailored to participants with limited mobility due to age, health, or injury. Classes begin with a seated warm-up, and upright dancing can be modified for seating if necessary. The course covers a wide range of dance styles, from swing to waltz to blues and more!
Classes meet every other week on Mondays from 1-1:50 p.m. Join us today!
First Steps™ is a weekday morning workshop designed for K3 and K4, and consists of four workshops total per week for 10 weeks. Due to COVID, only two classrooms will take the workshop at a time; each classroom will attend one workshop per week.
Orlando Ballet S.T.E.P.S.™ program is modeled after a similar award-winning program developed by New York’s Dance Theatre of Harlem. This program provides students in 2nd-5th grades with the opportunity to acquire a comprehensive knowledge of dance as an art form. The Orlando Ballet S.T.E.P.S. program offers classes in classical ballet, contemporary dance, musical theater, jazz, hip hop and spoken word over 10 weeks. Each class meets once a week for 1.5 hours.
Over the course of the intensive, students are provided with full dance attire.
A final showcase is presented at the conclusion of the program. Participants will present the works that were created over the course of the intensive. Each participant receives a certificate of completion from the Orlando Ballet S.T.E.P.S. program. Family and friends are highly encouraged to attend the final
