As the basis for almost all other dance styles, Ballet offers the technique needed in styles such as Jazz & Lyrical/Contemporary. Having a good foundation in technique helps a dancer to perform movements in all styles properly. It also assists in flexibility, muscle strength/tone, and posture. We offer different levels of Ballet in a variety of ages. Private lessons are available upon request, for any age including adults.

By merging Ballet and Jazz, you have a more fluid/quicker dance style. Though it's not as fast as Jazz, it is smoother and quicker than Ballet. Being more emotion oriented, the dancer focuses on expressing feelings through movement rather than performing structured choreography such as Ballet. Lyrical will follow a Ballet class, the technique taught  in Ballet will then be applied in Lyrical.

Once a dancer has strengthened their ankles and feet through the training of Ballet technique classes, and they are of proper ability as seen fit by the teacher, students are put en pointe. This advanced form of Ballet takes balance and proper technique to ensure all movements are performed properly while en pointe. We offer beginner and advanced classes. Pointe is usually following a Ballet/Lyrical class.
