Join us for a dance class that will use the structure of a traditional ballet class to prepare dancers for the 21st century. This class is designed for teen dancers ages 12-16 and will inspire students to move with grace and confidence, executing exercises at the barre, in the center, and across the floor with gradually increasing difficulty. Students will be encouraged to work within a safe range of motion for their bodies, focusing on core stability, turnout, coordination, and performance quality. Emphasis is placed on building the flexibility and strength required to consistently execute basic turns and jumps, along with clear, articulate control over footwork and the upper body. This class is an opportunity for students to discover the joy of ballet while feeling inspired and building confidence in themselves!
Students are encouraged to wear tights and a leotard to class, and their hair should be secured in a bun. Ballet shoes are mandatory for the session.
