Miss Christy's Dance Class - Jazz, Tap & Ballet
DVD
Welcome to Christy Curtis's dance classes for kids. Learn along with these other students in the video lessons for tap, jazz, and ballet. Each segment is helpfully repetitive and, unlike a real class, there's always the replay button! Perfect for parents trying to gauge their youngster's interest in dance before making an investment in classes or to those who want to share the joy of dancing. 102 minutes.

Jazz: Perfect for boys and girls! The girls wear traditional leotards, but the baggy clothes that the boys wear have turned this video into a "hip hop" learning experience for all ages too! Miss Christy teaches the basic steps, a few at a time, slowly at first and progressively speeding it up for more of a challenge. In not time, your children will be DANCIN! Tap: At any age, learning to tap dance is lots of fun and great exercise, but for children ages 6 and up, it is also a wonderful way to develop coordination and balance, rhythm, speed, and to develop or improve timing, strength, and agility. Tap is the all-American form of musical theatre expression. Ballet: This program is structured just like a formal ballet class, featuring exercises at the barre, port-de-bras, center, and traveling moves. Whether learning, practicing, or just for plain fun, this is a program your future ballerina will watch over and over again because Christy makes ballet fun and easy!

You gotta have "flow." You also oughta have ready access to the rewind button to replay the instructions a few hundred times. While the steps are broken down to kid-friendly basics, the action can seem head-turningly complicated. The six hip-hop moves are the most accessible, while the break dancing sometimes appears comically confusing. Yet the precocious backup dancers, regular-looking kids who mirror the video's target age of 5 to 12, make all the right moves, making...
