Pointe
In order to take pointe class, you must take a minimum of 2 ballet classes per week and have a teacher's recommendation.

Hip Hop
Our hip-hop classes incorporate street funk, breaking, popping, and locking.

Classes for grades 1-12 are divided by age and level.  If you are coming out of our pre-school program, you will begin in Garnet and progress through the levels below.  Where noted ** there may be a Garnet class for older dancers.  You may only move up an extra level with a teacher's recommendation.  Often in ballet, students are asked to repeat a level because the technique is extremely challenging.
