Children's Ballet Program

Children’s Ballet Program Class Description

Classical ballet lessons for children 6-12 years old

This program is designed for students ages 6-12 who are interested in learning classical ballet. We will introduce ballet vocabulary and broaden each student’s mastery of steps. In Ballet 4 and 5 they will be introduced to supplementary dance styles including modern, contemporary, and flamenco.

There will be several performance opportunities including main stage performance of storybook ballets, classical repertoire and contemporary choreography, as well as parent observation and competition opportunities. Placement class required for Ballet 2 and higher.
