Ballet

Ballet is a classical dance form that originated in the 1500s. Our classes are accompanied by a pianist and follow a traditional structure. Students begin at the barre, progress to the center, and culminate with traveling exercises across the floor. Terminology, alignment, balance, artistry, sequencing, and pushing through space are emphasized at each level.

Pointe class is an optional add-on, though not required, for students who have studied ballet to an intermediate level. Students require instructor approval to register for pointe, and information regarding instructor approval will be sent in your recommendation email at the end of July. Students new to The School will need to register for pre-pointe and assessment will be made during the first 4 weeks of class. Please find details below.

Registration for Children and Teen Programs are now open to the general publicJoin our email list to receive email alerts about registration.
