Ballet 

A ballet class is structured to develop classical ballet technique, grace, strength, and artistic expression. A ballet class not only focuses on physical technique but also instills discipline, artistry, and a love for classical music and dance. It provides a structured environment where dancers can develop strength, flexibility, and expressive skills while nurturing a deep appreciation for the art of ballet.

  

- Progression: Classes are structured to accommodate different levels of proficiency, from beginners to advanced dancers, with exercises adapted accordingly.​​
