Dancers will focus on beginner barre work, basic turns, jumps, and traveling exercises. Emphasis is placed on body alignment, proper arm placement, and terminology.

Quote Marks
"I love that we get to tell classic stories like The Wizard of Oz and The Little Mermaid through dance. I love that we mix it up and do all kind of styles and really get creative with it. These productions are really where that family bond comes from, because we spend countless hours together on the weekends but it’s always so fun. I also think that the WWPDC productions are what make TDC so unique; you’re really never going to fun shows like ours anywhere else and that’s what I love about them!"
