MotionArt focuses on nurturing children’s individual creativity while facilitating their understanding of the dance elements of space, time, and energy.

Ages 3-5 explore these elements through playful, structured activities allowing them to expand their movement vocabulary, develop body awareness and gain self-confidence. Ages 5-7 explore the dance elements while being introduced to new movement skills and the creation of their own dances. Ages 7-12 expand their creative and kinesthetic awareness while learning basic movement skills of modern dance.

We offer ways for children to dance during these uncertain times through Zoom and outdoor classes. Please go to motionartmn.org to sign up for classes. There are various options for payment/donations, and no one will be turned away for inability to pay.

Ballet… It Does a Body Good!

Lisa’s ballet classes naturally guide students in refining their alignment, balance, technique and potential, while also discovering the value and importance of the use of weight in their ballet dancing. Students are encouraged to “expect success”! Mindset is essential. And, mistakes are expected and valued! Only when we allow ourselves to take chances and risk failure can we grow into our full potential. Come give it a try! You’ll be glad you did!

Thursdays, 5:30-6:45pm: Intermediate
Sundays, 1:30-3:00pm: Slow intermediate
Mondays, 5:30-6:45pm: Beginning 2
