NEBT has developed a creative movement program for young children who love to move, dance, and simply have fun. Creative movement class focuses on the earliest teachings of dance through directed play. This is the first class a child should partake before an actual dance class. This class helps children further their development of fine and large motor skills through fun and imaginative activities. Children will begin to develop a foundation that includes musicality, rhythm, trust and social skills. Creative movement class leads directly into the Pre-Ballet level. During pre-ballet children will begin learning the basic elements of ballet technique including primary positions and vocabulary.

Ballet
The instructor at NEBT is highly trained in all genres of classical ballet. Styles including; Vaganova, Cecchetti, and Balanchine will be introduced during the student's dance career. Strict ballet etiquette, proper placement, and technical execution will be learned and perfected at this time. Advanced levels will begin to expand their artistic abilities through performances once they are versed in intermediate vocabulary. Pre-pointe and students with pointe experience will have the opportunity to become a “Company Dancer”. Company dancers will be chosen through an audition process, preparing them for the experiences they will encounter when auditioning in the dance world. Company members will have the privilege of becoming assistant teachers for the young children’s division. All of this can be achieved in a strict professional atmosphere while having an experience of a lifetime! NEBT is also offering adult ballet for anyone out of high school who is interested!

Modern Dance
Using the techniques of; Lester Horton, Martha Graham, and José Limon, dancers are challenged with the different aspects of each genre. Students will explore their artistic freedom through the center, across the floor work, and choreography. Contact Improvisation will be introduced during these classes as well as jazz classes. Contact improvisation is a class based on learning the limits of the dancer’s body by taking trust to the next level. Students will learn how to work with the distribution of each other's weight to create movements or poses. This is a very demanding form of dance and can only be properly executed with one's full attention and commitment

Contemporary Dance
Imagine a world where there were no limitations in movement. This is what we call contemporary dance. It is a cross between ballet and modern. With a creative and imaginative mind, it can be just as breathtaking as the two. There is a catch, children must have a basic knowledge and understanding of both ballet and modern before participating in this class. Proper technical experience is necessary for the beauty of contemporary to bloom.
