Summer Classes

Visit our Adult Division.
Our summer dance classes are a great way for students to stay in shape, reinforce their technique or complement their summer activities.
Classes are taught by our highly experienced faculty and are divided into 3 convenient 2-week sessions so that families can customize the schedule that works best for them.
Class sizes will be limited as part of our COVID safety protocols.
Please note that classes and faculty are subject to change. All classes are subject to cancellation if less than 4 students are enrolled.

BALLET LEVEL GUIDANCE FOR NEW STUDENTS
Intro to Dance: Recommended for students ages 4-5. This level serves as a bridge between Creative Movement and the more formal ballet class structure introduced in Pre Ballet. It is a good choice for students who would still benefit from some creative exploration of movement while beginning to incorporate more ballet fundamentals. The class focuses on developing active listening skills along with motor development, coordination and musicality.
Pre Ballet: Recommended for students ages 5-7 who have had limited previous dance experience and have not begun to develop their formal technique.
Beginning Ballet: Recommended for students ages 6+ who have had at least one year of formal ballet training and have an understanding of fundamental vocabulary.
Beginning/Intermediate Ballet: Recommended for students ages 8+ who have had at least 3 years of ballet training.
Intermediate Ballet: Recommended for students ages 10+ with at least 5 years of ballet training.
Intermediate/Advanced Ballet: Recommended for student ages 13+ with at least 7 years of ballet training.
DRESS CODE
Ballet Dress Code for Girls: Girls should wear a plain, solid colored leotard with pink or flesh colored dance tights. Tights must not have runs or holes and should be matte (not shiny or Lycra). Ballet shoes (and pointe shoes, if applicable) should align with the color of the tights. Hair should be secured neatly, away from the face in a bun or similar style. Shorter hair that cannot be made into a bun should be secured away from the face.
Ballet Dress Code for Boys: Boys in Creative Movement, Intro to Dance, Pre-Ballet and Beginning Ballet should wear a fitted tee-shirt with black leggings, dance tights or shorts. Boys in Beginning/Intermediate Ballet and up should wear a fitted tee-shirt with black footed dance tights. Black ballet shoes should be worn. Long hair should be secured neatly away from the face.
Modern and Contemporary Dress Code: Same as for ballet but girls may substitute black leggings or tights and boys may substitute tights for black leggings or jazz pants.
