As studios started shutting down all over the country, dancers began scrambling to stay in shape and the #keepdancing movement began.
Dancers are some of the most disciplined athletes due to it’s nature and online classes began popping up everywhere!
How can you make sure you are taking online classes safely?
AND what should you expect when you do return do the dance studio?
Legacy dancers have been working hard in classes on technique preparing to learn Showcase choreography this winter. Please continue to encourage your dancer to stretch and practice at home.
Dancers love to move. They love to feel their bodies flow across the stage, but it’s important for them to slow down sometimes. Doing yoga is a great way for dancers to increase their strength, joint stability, and flexibility. Yoga, over time, makes a dancer better, regardless of their dance style. While every yoga pose is beneficial in some way, there are certain poses that are specifically great for dancers. Dance technique is the foundation and cross training through other styles is key to be well rounded.
Learning
to dance offers a wealth of opportunities for children. Dance Classes offer a fun way for your child to learn balance, coordination, fitness and to work with their peers in a disciplined, structured environment.
Whether you are enrolling your child in dance class or looking for instruction for yourself, it is important to factor in the cost of proper dance apparel into your budget. Many new dance students do not realize just how important it is to wear the right clothes, but proper attire will be critical to your success in class and beyond.
One of the most important things to think about when signing your son or daughter up for dance classes is that all apparel should be age appropriate and tasteful. That means no bare midriffs, no bare legs and absolutely no bra tops. Dance class should be something special, and the clothes your young dancer chooses should reflect the seriousness of the training they are about to receive.
So just what is appropriate for dance class, and which items of clothing should be on your pre-class shopping list? The answer to that question is somewhat complicated, since every type of dance has its own preferred uniform. Here are a few tips for choosing age appropriate and tasteful outfits for the young dancer in your life.
Showcase Costumes are being ordered and on their way to Legacy!! Please stay tuned for information pertaining to Showcase Picture Day, Community Performances, and more in 2017.
