Placement in ballet classes will be determined by ability rather than age. Age will serve as a guideline for students new to ballet but ability will determine the level of ballet class each student should register for. Placement in the proper class will ensure the most progress for each dancer and promote motivation to improve and move forward. Miss Maggie will send home a level recommendation for each current ballet student in the spring. New students are welcome to attend a class or the summer ballet session in order to be properly evaluated.
Every ballet student participates in a spring ballet show separate than the June recital!
Your ballet tuition for the year includes your scheduled ballet classes, a performance costume to keep, any additional rehearsals and one ballet performance ticket! Tuition for ballet classes is slightly higher than our other classes of the same length. By incorporating the ballet performance as part of the monthly tuition, we eliminate the large show fee that would be due around the holidays.
With all of our ballet students participating in the show, most rehearsals will be able to take place during regularly scheduled class time. Every student will have one weekend rehearsal to learn their choreography. Dates for weekend rehearsals will be given out the first week of fall classes.
Our ballet program is a more intense track than our recreational combo and hip hop classes. Specific individual corrections are given in class and proper dress code is strictly enforced.
