Teaching kids ballet dance is a constant issue which in many cases is considered a difficulty due to the many challenges that align in teaching kids ballet dance.
The future of any dance genre belongs to the kids and failure to produce good ballet dance kids will definitely have a negative effect in the development of this outstanding dance brand. I have seen and read many write ups on how to teach kids ballet dance. Myself, I have tested these methods and confirmed their reliability. But I recently discovered some new ways in teaching kids ballet and that is what I want to share with you.
Knowledge is bigger than anyone. No one is bigger than knowledge. This knowledge will make anyone who applies it bigger. Let's begin.
1. Be extremely serious with them. It's good to take it simple and easy on them but that method is becoming outdated, producing less result and reducing the effectiveness that can be generated from teaching kids. From the first class or meeting, try and be very serious. Let them see it, feel it and persuade them to accept it. No unnecessary laughing or movements. With this, you can keep all attention on the dance class. If they can adapt, their development will be very quick and steady.
2. Steady their minds and attention on the dance class. This is the major thing dance teachers all over the world have found very difficult to achieve. Once this is achieved, every other thing that takes place during the class becomes easy. To achieve this, don't start going into dance lessons. First, look for ways to distract their minds and eyes from every distracting object. The object of distraction may be a friend, a doll, food or anything. Discourage discussions that do not help the class. Talk to them like young adults. Believe me, they will understand. And print it clear to them that absent mindedness will hinder the progress of their dance. Separate friends and mix them up properly. Tell them each person stands alone and should focus on himself or herself. Then, ask them to do simple dance moves repeatedly. This is to test their focus level. Those that have many distractions running through their minds will not pass this test. Identify them and start the process with more seriousness in forms of talks, examples and a little compulsion. Two things are likely to happen. First, they will play to your tone and steady their minds on what you are teaching. Second, you will identify the willing passionate ones from the ones who came just to make up the number. This will help you build good kids ballet dancers.
After doing these two things, you can start the dance lessons and be sure to get 90% commitment from the kids. Among other known methods of teaching kids, apply these two regularly and soon it will become a normal thing for them.
