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 Winter 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.
*New for 2022-23*: Your dancer may take one ballet class a week at any age! Especially if they are a singer or actor. Our syllabus is structured in such a way to support them. Dancers 13 and older may take a Level 4a or below class once a week. Dancers 12 and younger may take level 1 or 2 once a week! Please email us if you have any leveling questions.
Listed below are the ballet requirements to perform in our Winter & Spring Performances.
*Please note: If you have scheduling conflicts you may fill your requirements with any level below the one you are assigned.
