What to Expect in Weekly Ballet with Miss Jamie

Welcome to Ballet with Miss Jamie! We start each class with a "question of the day" and ballet warmup stretches.

Each week focuses on different age-appropriate ballet positions, footwork, jumps and steps. You can find the weekly focuses below. We practice in the center and across the floor where every child will have the opportunity to share their favorite movements.

Class ends with a fun dance game and/or short dance combo, curtsies and show and tell!

Improve your musicality, balance and strength in Ballet with Miss Jamie - all while having a lot of fun.

You are welcome to join the class at any time. No previous dance experience is required. This class is inclusive and can be adapted for all learners.

Cancel or pause your subscription before your next class if you don't want to get charged for the next class. 3 year olds are allowed if they have an older sibling also registered for the class. 8 year olds will also be accepted if they are at the beginner level.

Ballet with Miss Jamie Safety Disclaimer

Please provide a space that has enough space for your child to dance safely. Your dancer should wear comfortable clothing and have a water bottle nearby. Please mention any injuries prior to the class so I can modify the moves as needed. For child safety reasons, your dancer needs to be wearing a top and bottoms at all times. If they want to wear a leotard or one piece swimsuit, make sure they have shorts or a skirt.

By signing up for this class you understand that dance, like any physical activity, involves some risk and take responsibility for any physical injury which occurs during class.
