Program partially funded by Local Management Board of Kent County. The Leaders Club is a program that embarks on utilizing a peer pressure approach for middle school-aged children by focusing on positive peer influences in a variety of educational, physically challenging, and service learning type activities. Positive peer pressure influences teens to channel negative behavior into more positive and beneficial pursuits. This also helps to develop and enhance self-esteem, decision making, and problem solving skills. Recreational activities may include a basketball game, amusement park trip, snow tubing and more.
Emphasis is placed on tumbling, rolls, balance, strength and coordination.

This class is designed to introduce children to an introductory level of ballet. No prior experience with ballet is necessary for this class. Girls are required to wear black leotard, pink tights and ballet slippers to class.
