Ballet Requirements for Registration
Dress code Info
We encourage ballet students to take as many classes as they would like in their assigned level! We have found it especially rewarding for students to take multiple times a week as they advance in level. Dancing on pointe is a special aspect of ballet which takes diligent training to master. The more you practice the easier it becomes!
We encourage students to share what they have learned on stage in our Nutcracker and Spring performances. We find rehearsing and demonstrating dances for the community an exhilarating experience for students, bringing them a sense of mastery, comradery, and confidence.
Listed below are the requirements to perform in our Winter & Spring Performances. Due to Covid19 restrictions and the high costs of production in a theatre without the guarantee of an audience, we will be creating a film project (in studio in December) that will be streamed online for families to view.
