Our program is based on the Vaganova Method of training, where students receive a comprehensive dance education in a nurturing, well rounded environment. Highly qualified instructors work with each dancer in a step-by-step approach instilling the solid foundations of classical ballet, along with character building qualities such as focus, a strong work ethic, determination, and self esteem.

Ballet classes are offered for ages 3 and up. Students are placed in their respective ballet levels based on a variety of factors. Classical ballet program begins with the joy of moving to music, and is supported with a foundation in classical technique and instructions in basic ballet terminology. Students progress through training stages designed to increase technical skills, stamina, and disciple in accordance with the students’ age and physical development.
Pointe work for girls is introduced when the students are physically ready.
