Ballet technique class with a positive atmosphere, for young people who have had some introduction to movement: ideally, students will have taken Creative Ballet, Intro to Ballet, and Intermediate Ballet. We will focus on proper alignment and execution of steps, musicality, performance quality, and classical ballet’s vocabulary, etiquette, and traditions while each student’s learning style and unique artistic contribution will be honored.
