CLASSIC BALLET

In Beginner Ballet, dancers learn the foundations of ballet technique and classical movement. There is a strong focus on body awareness, coordination, rhythm, musicality, strength, and flexibility. Students complete barre work as well as practice and perform ballet combinations to classical ballet music. This is a transitional class geared to more serious levels of technical training.

POINTE

An introduction or refresher course to get you familiar with the shiny shoes or to supplement your other ballet classes. There's a world of difference between demi- and full pointe! Our focus will be on the articulation of the feet, "rolling through" the shoe correctly, keeping the ankles in a straight line, and maintaining proper alignment of the rest of the body. Most time will be spent at the barre, followed by center work, and movements traveling across the floor. Pointe shoes are required.
