Primary
Ballet
Designed to build a solid foundation from which future development both as a dancer and individual can emerge, the overarching principles of the primary level are to learn proper ballet class etiquette, positioning of the body, musicality and coordination.
Offered 1 - 2 times per week, class is 1 hour long.
Level One
Dancers are introduced to barre work with more emphasis placed on turn-out and position of the arms. Level 1 classes resemble and follow the historical and physically effective format of a traditional ballet class from barre exercises to center where movement through space becomes more codified and structured.
​
Offered 2 times per week, students interested in moving up to Level 2 should consider taking both Level 1 classes as well as Jazz 1.
