Dance Class Descriptions

Ballet

Our structured ballet program provides a comprehensive introduction to the discipline, technique, and artistry of classical ballet. Dancers progress through developmentally appropriate levels, beginning with fundamental concepts such as posture, alignment, and basic positions. As students advance, they are guided through increasingly complex movement vocabulary, with a focus on strength, coordination, musicality, and expressive performance. Each level is thoughtfully designed to support the dancer’s growth and prepare them for continued study in a classical ballet tradition.
