These shows have brought a reputation for excellence to our actors and our performing arts program. Dance courses at Santa Catalina offer students the opportunity to use and understand movement as a form of expression. Ballet, tap and jazz are taught as art that demands interpretation, creativity and discipline. Students may participate in dance exercises that improve movement and enhance awareness. They receive individual attention as they learn and practice technique.
Music is a dynamic vehicle of self-expression.
We structure the learning experiences at Santa Catalina to support the student's creative processes while providing foundations of knowledge and methods of learning upon which she can continue to build throughout her life. Instruction in private instrumental and vocal venues, practice and performance within choral and ensemble groups and the study of music theory are viewed as opportunities to develop and encourage potential and musical talents.
