For childrenFor children, we can provide a range of active courses from children’s dance classes to mini ballet and acrobatics. We have groups in children’s dance classes, minicircus and mini ballet starting from 3-year-olds. For the beginners’ acrobatics the age limit is 4. In the classes, your child will learn basic skills in moving, rhythm and space, as well as get to know their own body whilst learning about working in a group. The world of dance and acrobatics is explored through games and mental imagery. The classes aimed at children enhance basic skills and serve as a great stepping stone to the basic education in the arts studies that begins in school age. |
Youth & teenagersWe offer basic education in the arts for youngsters from on the age of 7. In our selection we have, for example, contemporary dance, classical ballet, lyrical jazz, hip hop, breakdance, locking, show jazz, commercial dance, body maintenance circus and acrobatics. Dance/Circus can be a fun hobby you attend once a week, or a hobby with the goal of completing studies in basic education in the arts. It is possible to complete either the general or advanced syllabus in dance and the general syllabus in circus art. The advanced syllabus is available for contemporary dance or street styles as the main subject of studies. Our student advisor Ulla Koho as well as our other teachers will provide help in matters regarding studies in dance. |
