Ballet

Ballet is the basic foundation of all dance forms. It teaches proper placement, carriage, grace, and poise. Barre exercises develop strength and flexibility, while center work allows the student to practice classic dance principles. Ballet is highly recommended as a complement to other classes because the terminology and placement learned in ballet quickens advancement in other classes.
