At this age, there is an increase in a child's attention span that allows them to stay focused for longer periods of time. This class focuses on perfecting ballet techniques through barre work, centre work and allegro work (jumping). Greatest emphasis is placed on correct positions and an increase in intricate steps and combinations. The beauty and grace of body movements in ballet will begin to form at this level.

What Carman’s students are saying:
“Ms. Carmen is excellent. Patient and caring.”
“Carman is very knowledgeable and attentive to the students.”

Carman Bogle (Pre-Ballet, Intro to Ballet, Beginning Ballet) studied ballet as a child and through her teenage years in Rutland, Vermont where she performed in The Nutcracker with Ballet Manchester at the Smith Center and The Dorset Playhouse. After becoming a wife and mother, Carman continued to enjoy a love of dance, using her skills as a cheerleading coach and for various church & community events/benefits. Carman joined the Hubbard Hall faculty in 2014 and says the experience has been "a true honor and privilege."
