Ellen Robbins' dance classes for children do what dance is supposed to do: train their bodies in technique, attune their ears to great music, immerse them in the thrill of improvisation, and coach them in composition.- the natural outcome of which is performance. Dances by Very Young Choreographers is an annual, professionally-produced dance concert. Students perform their own solo compositions and participate in a group work, choreographed by Ellen. Each child's unique personality shines through.
