Dear 25th Year HST Dance Families,
The first 10 weeks of HST’s dance classes have a primary focus on technique (except for level 4 classes). This year the 10th week will actually be the 1st week back after Christmas holidays (Jan. 7 & 8). After that, teachers will be focused on choreographing the dances for Showcase.
*Please use the attached skill charts and links to instructional videos to help your students practice at home* because *skill mastery is not going to happen if dance class is the only time your student dances.*

For Jazz the ‘Howcast’ videos on youtube are free and recommended: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLF6166F725D8AA1DE
We’ve also attached the list of skills that should be mastered at each dance level.
Blessings, Marilyn
