Dance Levels
Our dance levels are based both on age and ability, and a certain level of achievement must be attained in order to move onto the next level. It is not uncommon to remain in the same Dance Level for more than one season. Since not all students achieve the same ability level at the same time, the class will not remain together year after year
The Jr. and Sr. Graded Levels are Performance Levels and students are invited based on Director and Teacher’s recommendation.
REGARDING CLASS PLACEMENT:
The Director and faculty members are trained to place a student at a proper working level and together they make all decisions regarding class placement. Our carefully prepared curriculum serves your child what they need at the appropriate time, not just what they want.
Transfer Students
The PDC offers a complete syllabus in all levels in a progressive manner which introduces appropriate material at the correct time. Since different studios teach in various manners and curriculum, transfer students will be placed based on interview and experience. Upon observation in class, placement adjustments will be made.
Adult Classes
The PDC offers ballet, tap, and jazz adult classes based on popularity. Adult classes are friendly and encouraging, and provide a fun way to exercise and socialize. Adult dancers are not required to wear a leotard or tights, and may choose to wear activewear or gym-type clothing. Appropriate shoes are required for each dance class.
