Showcase Dance Centre, Baton Arts & Baton Twirling
We are beyond excited to begin our baton twirling program at Showcase Dance Centre! Ms. Jennifer is a Baton Arts Certified Teacher. The Baton Arts program is based on safe, logical and effective progressions with proven results in the five divisions of Baton Arts: Contact-Full Hand; Contact-Flips and Fingers; Rolls; Aerials; and Body. Developed from years of successful coaching with input from professionals and experts in baton twirling, Baton Arts, AcroDance, ballet, modern dance, jazz, contortion, artistic gymnastics, rhythmic gymnastics, juggling, yoga, acro yoga, pilates, physiotherapy, color guard, hand balancing and more, you will not find a more comprehensive program. Simple thoughtful progressions take the beginner preschool level twirler from circle passes and wrist twirls to the advanced twirler effortlessly manipulating the baton for spectacular stage and competitive performances!. We are looking forward to creating a performance team to participating in local community events. While teaching the art of twirling we know that it encourages balance, endurance, control, self-confidence and self-esteem.
