Class Descriptions

This class allows parent and child (3-5) to learn dance material together for a greater dance experience. This allows children to work on their motor skills while learning about Mexican Folklórico culture.

This is the first class taken at GFDP for ages 5+. In this class, students learn the basics of folklórico and prepare for auditions. Auditions are simply to make sure the student has learned all the material necessary to be successful in the advanced classes.

This class is one step up from our beginner's Term 1 class. Students are taught slightly more advanced material at a faster pace and begin preparing for auditions. These auditions let us know if students have learned enough material and technique to move on to the Performing Group.

Our Performing Bridge Class is the class taken when a student is ready to perform, but they need a little more time learning the technique behind the dances. All of our performing students take this class to keep their technique sharp.

This is our advanced group of dancers that perform around the community. These classes have more challenging material than Term 1 and Niños classes do. The audition process allows us to make sure students and parents are ready for the challenges of the harder material and performing.

We offer music classes for Mariachi music. Students learn to play the violin, trumpet, guitarron, vihuela, and guitar. Students learn how to play and sing Mariachi music. We prepare students to perform in the community.
