ISTD Tap and Modern

		Examinations for ISTD start at Primary and move up the grades 1-6. Professional qualifications can then be taken in Intermediate, Advanced 1 and Advanced 2. Examinations for IDTA will be medals through to trophies, the emphasis on this being performance based examinations. If a student wishes to gain teaching qualifications or audition for professional work, this should be brought to the teachers attention as soon as a possible to ensure the correct careers advice and guidance is given.

From age 1 to 3 years, this class is designed to introduce young children to dance and prepare them for the next step into the junior ballet and tap class. The parent/guardian is involved in the class and encourages the children to do the movements. A great class to have fun with your child. I have devised a syllabus for this class that will run on a half termly basis, repeating the same activities for those weeks so that the children become more competant at them, by changing them after 5 or 6 weeks children are ready to move on to learn new skills. There are movements, dancing, games and actions songs for each theme.
