	Wee Worship I This class is a fun time for 3 year olds to discover God’s creation, using movement and dance. They will learn to sing and dance the scriptures.

	Beginning Worship I A foundational dance class from a biblical perspective, includes study in basic ballet, interpretive dance, sign language, ribbons, flags. This gives students a foundation and vocabulary to interpret songs, to be able to minister in the dance. This applies to the children’s worship dance classes as well as the adults. Beginning Worship II This class covers the same material as Beginning Worship I only geared to a student who a little older and has had a foundation in worship dance I. Creative Worship Dance With a foundation in scripture, we will allow our creator to inspire us to learn many forms of dance; including basic ballet, sign language, lyrical/ interpretive, Hebrew folk dance, flags, pageantry, and creative choreography. This prepares students to interpret songs, to be able to minister dance in the church. This class is for 8 - 13 years olds, so of course we will have a little Hip Hop mixed in!
			Wee Worship II and both Intermediate Worship Dance Classes All Children's Worship Dance Classes have the same format as other Worship Dance classes. Each class is geared to the specific age level as well as skill level. They also learn to use props; ribbons, flags, and scarves to express their hearts to the Lord. Scripture memorization is also taught through coloring pages, dancing prayers and sign language. Intermediate worship dance classes are for the older girls with Miss Jami determining who best fits into each class.
			Beginning Worship I for Adults A foundational dance class from a biblical perspective, includes study in basic ballet, modern dance, Hebrew Folk dance as well as sign language, using props and flags. This gives students a foundation and vocabulary to interpret songs, enabling them to minister in the dance or just dance in their own worship time.


Prophetic Modern Dance Everything that is in the Creative Worship Dance class but at an intermediate to advanced level, with more complex choreography, as well as more in depth study of the scriptures. In this class the students will have the opportunity to choreograph to music as the other students interpret the dance. It's simply dance that tells God's Story (3 years prior dance training is required.)
		Lyrical Worship Dance Class A mixture of Jazz, ballet and some contemporary dance steps are taught in this class. Basically dancing to the lyrics of a song, thereby interpreting the meaning of the lyrics.

		Ballet Is introduced in most of our classes even though we don't have a specific ballet class.We believe ballet is the foundation in all dance that we teach.

	In incorporating Ballet into our classes..... Children are introduced to ballet within the limits of their immature anatomy and creativity is encouraged. For the adults ballet is a wonderful low impact way to stretch tone and strengthen muscles while gaining poise and flexibly. All of the ballet excercises will impart poise and grace, giving a firm foundation on which to build further training in other forms of Worship Dance.

	Beginner Worship Dance / Hip Hop A fun class that teaches all forms of worship dance with an emphasis on hip hop. This class will also have a foundation in the word.
			Boys Christian Hip Hop This class is fun, energetic and upbeat with clean movements done to popular Christian hip-hop music. Taught by a guy, tailored for guys of all ages.

All Worship Dance Classes will have a Foundation in the Word, that will be taught every week in various forms; written, scripture memorization, dancing prayers/scriptures. As well as learning the bibilical foundation of dance.It is our desire to see every student have the understanding that dance is the gift God has given them and it is to be used for His Glory. We teach that we have an Audience of One!
