BALLET DIVISION
Children's Division
Introducing children to the world of dance through creative movement, musical games and stories. No previous dance experience is required for any of the classes in this division.
Primary Ballet Division
In this division, the dancer's emphasis begins with barre work, where she learns proper body placement and awareness, correct French terminology, and the overall musicality of movements. As the dancer progresses through the division, the emphasis becomes more on proper ballet technique, placement, terminology, and musicality, with an even greater focus on building the strength needed to execute steps on demi-pointe leading to en pointe.
