Plié Performing ArtsWhat is it?
Plié Performing Arts class is a movement and performance-based, workshop style class for littles ages 3 and 5. This class focuses on movement that allows children to develop their gross and fine motor skills, vestibular and balance coordination, all while using imaginative play and sequencing. Dancers will have the chance to explore different props in this class, as well as build relationships with their teacher and friends! In this workshop style class, we'll incorporate performance related color-exploration, musicality, and crafts. Snack time will be provided as well (parents provide the snack). Price listed is all-inclusive (tuition + dance attire + costume rental) for the entire 2023-2024 dance season. This class includes participation in our winter and spring performances as well as additional performance opportunities through out the year (nursing homes, special events, etc) First payment due by first day of classes. Second payment due January 1, 2024. Monthly Auto-Pay is available, please contact the director. We follow 9R for weather closures only.

Testimonials:
"Our son loves his time at Durango Dance and often asks us to go on Saturday even after attending a full week with Plie. We love that he gets to spend time outdoors and in the dance studio and that he gets some much needed time with his peers! We have seen a dramatic improvement in our sons speech as well as his social skills since he started attending Plie last fall. Both the staff and and the parent community have been a wonderful." -Linnea
