The Ballet Class is the cornerstone of a dancer's training, establishing a foundation for excellence in ballet. The main focus is alignment, posture, coordination, and musicality, employing the time-tested barre and center work structure.

Guided by the principles of the Vaganova method, students undergo an immersive and rigorous classical ballet education. This comprehensive approach equips them with the essential skills required to embark on a professional career in ballet.

In the Pointe class, tailored for students with prior ballet training, participants apply previously acquired ballet techniques while wearing Pointe shoes. The class structure encompasses barre exercises, center-floor work, and across-the-floor combinations. These exercises specifically target and enhance the strength of the feet and ankles, a critical aspect for dancers looking to master the intricacies of pointe work.

Built upon a strong technical foundation, students explore variations from the classical repertoire, specifically emphasizing enhancing strength, stamina, endurance, and overall performance quality. This class serves as a valuable opportunity for students to refine their technique and apply it effectively in performances while developing stage presence.

In the Repertoire class, students are introduced to various excerpts from the classical ballet repertoire. As an excellent preparatory experience, this class offers comprehensive training in executing large sections of ballet performed as a group. An advantage for pre-professional ballet dancers is the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the storylines, characters, and choreography that may become integral parts of their future professional performances.

The Character Dance class is a valuable supplement to classical ballet training, providing students with a broader range of expression and diversity. This extension allows for enhanced growth and development, enriching the overall artistic experience for dancers.

Jumps, Turns & Progressions is a class dedicated to movement combinations designed for floor travel.

Each sequence strongly emphasizes refining techniques related to leaps, jumps, and turns while integrating fundamental techniques like direction change, weight adjustment, level change, and use of space.

This class is exclusively focused on refining technical skills without incorporating choreography.

Strength and flexibility are crucial for executing movements comfortably and gracefully in any dance discipline.

Our program is designed to enhance muscle development, boost flexibility, and establish a foundation beneficial for mastering the intricacies of both ballet and contemporary dance, allowing for a seamless and graceful expression of movement.

Floor Barre offers a distinct and focused lesson dedicated to intensive training. Emphasizing strengthening back muscles, promoting good posture, and enhancing flexibility, the class significantly reduces the risk of injury by conducting exercises on the floor. The body moves through patterns commonly found in ballet but in a gravity-reduced environment. This unique approach allows one to correct bad habits and better understand fundamental movement principles.

Providing personalized instruction directly to students can effectively address their unique requirements. Whether they struggle with pirouettes or require additional support grasping class concepts, individualized attention can make a significant difference. Advanced dancers may benefit from tailored guidance to maintain their momentum and continuously progress. It's essential to customize private lessons based on factors such as the student's age, skill level, and specific objectives.
