Courses

Ballet

Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced. Dancers will learn the basic body positions, core ballet exercises, proper body alignment and more. As students advance we continue to fine-tune the basic positions, posture and alignment, while introducing more advanced steps both at the barre and in the center. Exercises will focus on increasing speed and complexity, coordination of arm and leg movements, and developing strength in the lower body.
