Lil' Dumplins
Our Ballet Classes
Here's how it works:
1. Easy To Follow Schedule. We offer three exciting eight-week sessions throughout the year, corresponding to Fall, Winter, and Spring. Each session is carefully curated to provide your little ones with a rich and engaging ballet experience.
2. Simple and Hassle-free Registration! Lil' Dumplins class spaces are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Ensure you reserve your spot early to guarantee your place and avoid missing out on the fun!
3. Flexible Dress code. Your child is encouraged to wear whatever makes them feel comfortable and ready to dance! Whether it's a tutu, leggings, or their favorite superhero costume, we welcome all attire choices in our inclusive and non-judgmental environment.
4. No Pressure Performances! Unlike traditional ballet classes, we do not host formal performances at the end of each session. Instead, we believe in fostering a relaxed and stress-free atmosphere where children can simply enjoy the joy of movement without the pressure of a recital.
5. Open Class Policy. During Pre-Ballet, we love (and require 😁) having adults in the room. For Beginners Ballet, you're welcome to step out, but please stick around nearby. Feel free to invite family and friends to cheer on our dancers during any session—they'll add to the fun!

Pre-Ballet
Beginners Ballet (AGES 5-8 YEARS OLD)
This class is perfect for the absolute beginner who desires to learn ballet technique while playing. As we explore our imagination, we will develop spatial awareness and learn to focus on building a foundation for solid ballet technique. Students will learn correct ballet terminology and how to work within the structure of a traditional ballet class, all while engaging in pretend play!
Unlike traditional classes, Ms. Shirel curates all sessions around the pure joy of movement, prioritizing enjoyment over strict technique or ability. Additionally, children are encouraged to co-create and perform their own dances within class time, fostering creativity and self-expression.
