Class Descriptions

Ballet

Starts with a barre that places emphasis on how to use the feet, how to shift weight from both legs to one leg, the movement of the head and arms. Following the barre, the center focuses on basic turns, balance without stress and breathing; basic movement elements are developed into combinations and dance phrases. Understand the logic of the vocabulary and how it progresses, and the joy of movement will follow.
