ADULT AND TEEN DANCE CLASSES

INTERMEDIATE / ADVANCED BALLET
Designed for the dancer with at least 2-3 years of previous experience. This hour and a half class, focuses on enhancing individual artistry and cultivating the dancer's technical level with increasingly complex combinations of steps.
INTRO TO BALLET

Our next Intro to Ballet class begins June 6, 2023. Come dance with us!
