CREATIVE MOVEMENT Children ages 4-5 learn to love dance through individual expression and discovery. Simple movement sequences emphasizing musicality and coordination while developing the children's ideas and fantasies into movement and dance.

CHILDREN'S BALLET Introduce children ages 6-7 to a more formal ballet class. We begin to develop strength while maintaining flexibility through age appropriate exercises. Creativity and musicality is nurtured and developed. Parents may register children for two classes of the same level.

ENTRANCE LEVEL A class especially designed for beginning ballet students ages 8-12 with little or no experience. Young dancers are introduced to the ballet class in preparation for the Youth or Intensive Ballet programs.

COME DANCE WITH ME For 3 year olds with a parent. Come and enjoy exploring movement and music.

MUSIC TOGETHER Music Together is a music and movement class for parents and children (from birth to age 5) that encourages children to experience music through free play. Classes include singing, movement, and rhythm instruments and are taught by a registered Music Together instructor. Families receive two CDs and a songbook to continue the music-making outside of class.

BALLET Enjoy the study of ballet in a program developed to take the young dancer from his or her earliest steps to an advanced level of study. We stress a healthful approach to all the work, which is a basis for our training process. Our guided progression of classes helps to build and enhance the dancer's body and training. The student's progress is carefully monitored so that they have the appropriate classes, regardless of age or level.

TAP Develop precision in sound, movement, gesture and expression. Includes historical routines as well as current styles.

PILATES MAT WORK Focusing on precise movements with few repetitions creating a lean, flexible, powerful body and a focused mind. Ages 13 and up.

DANCE! MOVE! STRETCH! An exhilarating, fun exercise and stretch class encompassing basic dance movement. Keep healthy and fit with the professionals in a social setting. Class appropriate for all ages. No experience necessary.
