Today we are coming at you with a printable to help you teach the basic dance positions.
I take for granted that these positions come second nature to me, but there are many of my students who are learning these positions for the first time in my class. I always find it helpful to have these displayed on or around the mirror in my studio, so that students can have a quick reminder about what each positions looks like. Then when I say "Please being in fifth position" my class can follow directions quickly and efficiently. I find that having these displayed in my classroom helps to level the playing field, and helps everyone to feel empowered to take responsibility for themselves.
These printables can also be used to create stations around your room while you are teaching. You could teach a basic plié combo in first position. Then have your students travel around the room to different pages, trying the same combo in each dance position.
These basic dance positions are just one of the important foundations we use to teach dance, and this printable can keep this important building block top of mind for your students.

Keep Dancing!
