Pistarckle Theater is offering two after school programs. The first is ‘Follow the Beat Dance Workshop!’ It will meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays, from Sept. 19 through Nov. 10. The fee is $25 per week and there is a $25 registration. There will be a recital held on Nov. 12.
Students will gain poise, grace, flexibility, strength, endurance, coordination and self-confidence through this eight-week dance program. Dance, with its concentration on self discipline, extends itself to other areas of life and gives students the upper edge in their academic and professional endeavors as well. This program is guaranteed to prepare a child for dance in theater.
The class will be taught by performing arts major Marsha Howe, who was the recent choreographer for the 2011 Leadership Camp production. Due to strong demand, Marsha will return once more to "Follow the Beat" in this workshop.
