We live in an “instant gratification” world! How do dance educators deal with this reality and still propose a ballet program rooted in technique, discipline, repetition, muscle memory, proper placement and much more?
Correcting common ballet techniques is so IMPORTANT! To unlearn bad dance habits is a real struggle. We encourage every dance studio that has a wonderful Ballet Program (& their Ballet faculty) to attend MusicWorks Virtual Dance Teacher Connection on August 4th.
Ballet dancer, dance educator, author, and renown Janice Reid Barringer will be presenting her newest product, “Correcting Common Ballet Exercises, Vol.2". Without an undeniable doubt, Janice’s expertise will educate, inspire, motivate and produce positive action resulting in incredible progress for your students.

Why class plans?

(3) Save Time—Finding age-appropriate music and creating structured, progressive class plans are already done for you.

Miss Fabergé has made it acro her life, and her work speaks for itself. But I want to share my own thoughts here:
Studio owners, we are always looking for new ways to increase student class count at our studios. Offering acro – before or after a "core" class such as jazz or ballet – can boost your student count. This way, your student can take a "block" of classes.
Miss Fabergé's classes will be available to preview or purchase on July 9!
