Tumble Bunnies' Ballet classes teach poise, grace, balance, and proper posture using up-to-date music and props such as hats, balls, cones, balloons, bells, scarves, and more in selected dances.  The ballerinas will learn steps to create a dance which they will perform on the last day of each session.  By emphasizing stage presence, social expression, play-acting, and movement to music, each class is both fun and a positive learning experience.
