Offered to children currently in 5th-12th Grade for the 2024/2025 season.

This year long program meets weekly beginning in September and ending late June.

All of our Ballet classes stress correct placement (body alignment), and correct classical ballet technique, as well as ballet terminology. The goal is for the student to learn to dance by studying and internalizing the basic principles, in an effort to become self-reliant rather than imitating the movements executed by their teacher. The structure of this traditional ballet class enhances students’ physical and mental discipline while re-affirming posture, placement, flexibility, and strength. Each class begins with barre, followed by center work, and finally exercises across the floor. Students learn performance skills and basic music fundamentals while cultivating self-confidence and presence.
