First Dance and Primary Ballet (levels 1, 2, 3)

With increasing focus on the fundamentals of ballet, the First Dance and Primary levels introduce the essential components and vocabulary of classical technique. Creativity and theatricality are fostered through dance drama, while enhanced movement quality is promoted through the mastery of dance sequences.

Recommended attire for Ballet programs:
Girls: a bodysuit (preferably black) with white or pink tights, plus ballet slippers. Long hair should be worn in a bun.
Boys: a white t-shirt, dark sweat pants or shorts.


Ballet (ages 7 and up, Teen and Adult)

Throughout these levels, a formal classical dance teaching method is utilized, based on the internationally recognized Vaganova and Cecchetti techniques. These programs lead to the incremental development of fine motor skill, technical competence, and artistic expression. Body alignment, grace, and presentation are central goals.
