The MELODIE class is an introductory ballet program for children aged 6 to 8, designed to awaken musicality, creativity, and self-expression. This beginner-friendly class encourages young dancers to explore movement playfully, develop coordination, and experience the joy and grace of ballet.

MELODIE nurtures the natural potential in each child, helping them connect with their body, imagination, and the expressive power of dance.

• Developing grace, presence, and body awareness
• Exploring movement, gestures, and rhythm to nurture self-expression
• Supporting the child’s initial journey in classical ballet while respecting their individuality
