BOYS CLASS

This fun, energetic class is an introduction to Ballet technique for male dancers and is taken in addition to Graded Technique Level Requirements.

​

The class will emphasize strengthening the upper body, legs, and core, which are important for executing the demanding movements that are standard for all male ballet dancers. Students will be introduced to specialized movements (jumps, turns, and pyrotechnics) for the male dancer. This class is designed to complement the standard ballet class levels AP 1-JR 2.

​

Register HERE for the Saturday 9-9:30 Boys class!

 

The skills developed in the male ballet class, train the body in self-control and coordination, developing stretch and strength that translates to all sports: endurance for running, control for kicking and spatial awareness.

There will be a fee for Recreational summer classes for males.
