Ballet Classes starting SOON!
We're at Level 1 (woohoo🥳) so let's get cracking!
From the start of the 3rd term (20 July), my offering of ballet classes will commence in Napier:
PRE-BALLET for tots aged 4 - 5 years: a creative exploration of space and development of musicality, coordination, imagination and love of movement while instilling a sturdy foundation for ballet technique.
RAD PRE-PRIMARY IN DANCE (5 -6 years); The first level of the Royal Academy of Dance syllabi. Beautiful music, creative choreography and loads of room for developing expression through dance.
TEEN BEGINNER BALLET (12+ years) for those who wish they'd tried before or perhaps did a few classes when they were very much littler and would like to give it another bash.
ADULT OPEN BALLET CLASSES (Beginner to Advanced level): Let me know what ballet/dancing you've done before - if any - and we'll take it from there!
"NEVER-TOO-OLD" BALLET for ages 55+ ... or even for those with knee/ankle issues who don't particularly want to jump and leap, but would love to enjoy the grace, creativity and flow of dance while building strength. (Tutus and tiaras always welcome 😉!)
Please message/email me (dancewithcarmennz@gmail.com) for more information or to chat about where you might best fit in.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
