Session Description
Ages 11 and up - This class takes place four times a week. This preparatory class is a year (or two) of technical upgrading in classical ballet created in order for students to meet the criteria required to enter the Junior, Mid, or Senior divisions. This intensive program of the Preparatory Ballet class prepares students with abilities that may have started ballet in their Junior or Senior years or students who need to erase “bad habits” to ensure clean and correct technique. Enormous, rapid, and constant progress is expected from the students of this division/class. Photo description: 12 years old student.
