Beginning Ballet I
Adult Program Drop-In Classes
About
Our Beginning Ballet I classes build on fundamentals and skills learned in Brand New to Ballet, while still moving at a slower pace. Dancers in this class complete a basic full ballet barre and center, also introducing basic directional changes and beginning turns. Emphasis continues to be placed on alignment, strengthening, and balance. This class is ideal for dancers with foundational knowledge returning after many years away, those returning from injury recovery, and dancers interested in a slower, more focused approach to refining technique and foundational skills. Dancers who have been taking Brand New to Ballet consistently for about 1-2 semesters are are typically ready for Beginning Ballet I, with instructor recommendation. More advanced dancers approved to dance en pointe, who are looking to increase strength and improve their pointe technique at a faster pace, are welcome to take the barre portion of class in their pointe shoes, with instructor's permission. An automatic confirmation email is sent to you upon registration for this class. We look forward to dancing with you!
