Ballet

Ballet has become a widespread, highly technical form of dance with its own vocabulary based on French terminology. It has been globally influential and has defined the foundational Ballet technique used in many other dance genres. Classes emphasize the development of classical ballet skills, with a focus on proper placement and alignment. Students will learn ballet vocabulary through barre and centre work while building strength and flexibility. Ballet will maximize technique and longevity in a career or practice of dance.

Ballet will focus on posture, balance, self-discipline, grace, self-confidence, fitness, and individual expression. The benefits of ballet will strongly support other styles of dance as well.

WHAT TO WEAR?

Attire is simple but specific. Dancers wear a black bodysuit, pink tights and pink ballet slippers. Hair must be up and tied in a bun.
