Nutcracker March – Holiday Pre-Ballet Combo with Present Prop (Ages 6-7)

Nutcracker March with Present Prop by Shalynne Armstrong is a joyful pre-ballet holiday combo designed for young dancers ages 6-7. Using a wrapped present prop and simple formation changes, this routine teaches traveling, staging, and performance awareness while keeping dancers fully engaged in the magic of the season.

The choreography reinforces foundational ballet skills, including plié, relevé, sauté, échappé, tendu, bourrée, walks, gallops, spring points, passé, and arabesque—all presented in an age-appropriate, musical, and imaginative way. This full-length dance is perfect for holiday recitals and can also be shortened for classroom use.
