Basic Beginner Workshops
If you have always wanted to learn how to dance, or are looking to learn a new style of dance these workshops are for you! Workshops help new dancers progress and build on what they have learned from week to week. Our Beginner Workshops are split into Sessions. It is ideal to participate in the workshops back to back to improve your skills and progress to our Advanced Beginner level classes. Please note each session builds upon material taught in previous sessions. Sessions will run through mid-May.
Basic Beginner Ballet
You will learn Basic Ballet positions, movements, and exercises. This class will go slowly and explain the proper placement and execution of each movement/exercise. Class will include exercises at the Ballet Barre, center floor work, turns, and jumps. Please wear comfortable dance clothes. We recommend wearing clothes that allow the instructor to easily see your body so corrections to placement can be made. Leotards and tights are not required. Please wear canvas or leather ballet slippers (we recommend Bailey Slipper Shop for your dance shoe needs). *Session II and beyond are progressions from previous sessions, in order to join student must have some prior ballet or jazz training.
