Callanwolde Fine Arts Center’s School of Dance has re-imagined and refreshed our entire dance department. This year we have brought in new teachers, scheduled new classes, and created a “performance track” for students who are interested in performance opportunities above and beyond the annual spring recital. In addition, any dance class can be taken “à la carte”, so that dance students at any level can learn and grow outside of the parameters of a performance track schedule. We believe that with our new philosophy/pedagogy, the creation of new classes, and the expertise and energy of new teachers, particularly for ballet-based instruction, we have created the best dance program in Atlanta! Dance Coordinators and Teachers We are excited to announce that Jerylann Warner (modern, contemporary) and Nicole Johnson (ballet, contemporary) have been appointed overall coordinators of all of our dance classes. Jerylann and Nicole will be joined by additional dance teachers, many of whom taught here last year and/ or this summer: Corian Ellisor, Shawn Evangelista, Sean Hilton, Jillian Mitchell, Heather Moffitt, and Erin Rausch. We continue with Irish Dance (Maddie Hane, instructor) and African Dance (Assane Kouyate, instructor). Instructor photos and biographies can be found on our website. I M A G I N A T I O N Children’s Classes CHILDREN MUST HAVE PARENTAL SUPERVISION BEFORE AND AFTER THEIR CLASS The aim of this program is to instill in each student the joy of dance as an art form. The program includes technical skills, improvisation and choreography, musical background, and performing experience within a graded structure. Children are allowed a high degree of personal freedom for their own invention and creativity. This educational approach to dance utilizes problem solving, observation, and sharing of experience. Make-Up Policy: Jerylann Warner Nicole Johnson Schedule Our new schedule has been organized so that there are two tracks - A performance track, and for those who are not performance-focused or who want or need more time in their weekly schedules for other pursuit, all classes can be taken à la carte. We have broken all classes into these groups: Class* Performance Track Requirements Performance Block Price – 10 weeks Foundational (approximate ages 7 - 9) 2 ballet, 1 modern or 1 jazz, 1 tap (optional, but recommended), rehearsal $600.00, plus 80.00 to add optional tap Rising (approximate ages 10 - 12) 3 ballet, 1 modern (2nd modern optional), 1 jazz, 1 tap, 1 pre-pointe/ pointe, rehearsal $912.00, plus 90.00 to add optional extra modern, 80.00 for optional tap Emerging (approximate ages 12 - 14) 3 ballet, 1 contemporary, 1 modern, 1 jazz, 1 tap, 1 pre-pointe/pointe, rehearsal $984.00, plus 80.00 to add optional tap, 80.00 to add conditioning Advanced (approximate ages 14+) 3 ballet, 1 contemporary, 1 modern, 1 jazz, 1 tap, 1 pointe, rehearsal $1, 032, plus 80.00 to add optional tap, 80.00 to add conditioning À la carte classes Students may register for any dance class that fits their needs, schedule and ability. This is a perfect way to try out a new teacher, learn something new (tap!), and/or allow for other extracurricular activities outside of dance. À la carte class prices are located on the schedule of classes. Performances Students in the performance track will attend rehearsals for the many opportunities both at Callanwolde (i.e., Gala, Salute to America, Jazz on the Lawn, Halloween and Christmas at Callanwolde, etc.) and outside of Callanwolde (area festivals, DeKalb County events, etc.) for performance opportunities to choose from. Our dance coordinators will be working alongside music instructors to create multidisciplinary opportunities with some of our music performance students as well. *Unsure which Class your dancer belongs in? Come to our placement day – August 9th from 5 – 6:30pm (ages 8 – 11), and 6:30 – 8:00pm (ages 12+). Callanwolde is not responsible for classes missed due to student absences. Parents should discuss make-up policy with their Instructor. Dance students must make up classes missed during a quarter before the end of that quarter. Children should attend a class of the same age group with the same instructor. Youngest Dancers Our classes for the youngest dancers Introduce boys and girls ages from age 3 + to the fundamentals of dance, while helping them to increase their physical strength, flexibility, coordination and endurance. Designed to increase the student’s self-confidence and to find a greater joy in moving, dance and personal expression. Additionally, these classes seek to nurture children while developing their motor skills, socialization and physical play; creating a joy in movement that can last a life-time. Pre-Ballet and Pre-Modern classes offer a starting point for the future dancer; the foundations are explored and improved upon. Children should wear comfortable clothes and may dance barefoot or in ballet slippers. Tights and leotard for girls, or plain white t-shirts and loosefitting blue shorts for boys, are preferred. All classes are 12 weeks. Adult Dance For the adult dancer both beginner and experienced, we offer a number of classes annually. Our current roster includes Contemporary Dance, a mix all forms of dance including, but not limited to modern, jazz, ballet, hip hop and more. This is a perfect class for people just starting in dance or for dance professionals looking to expand upon their technique. West African Dance, led by Senegalese master dancer and choreographer Assane Kouyate and accompanied by live drumming, is a fun way to learn about Senegalese culture and dance. Beginning Irish Dance will keep your balance and rhythmic movements in check! See chart of Specialized Classes for schedules.

Phil Tan, soft-spoken and the measure of calm, is one of the most respected and highly-awarded professionals in his field. Phil began his career at the age of 18, when, with little music experience (just some childhood piano lessons), he decided to focus on music post-high school. He was accepted to the prestigious Berklee School of Music in Boston, MA but he could not afford it. Instead, he chose Full Sail University in Florida and upon graduation, landed an internship here in Atlanta, which eventually led him to recording and mixing work with JD (Jermaine Dupri), a friendship and close working relationship that continues to this day. Phil Tan is a 3-time Grammy award recipient whose credits include bestsellers by Rihanna, Mariah Carey, Ne-Yo, Ludacris, Usher, Katy Perry, Janelle Monae and more.
