Explanation of Leveled Classes

​We offer leveled classes to meet the needs of our students as they advance.  Students in a Level 2 or Level 3 class need final approval from the teacher before being enrolled in the class to ensure that all students are placed in the class that is best suited for them and will provide them the opportunity for the most growth.
​

• Level 1 - designed for the beginner dancer who has little to no dance experience, or for dancers who have moved up an age group.  Focus at this level will be on building the technical foundations of the dance style that the dancer can build upon.​
• Level 2 - designed for students who have mastered the basic technical elements of the dance style and are ready to build on those elements with learning intermediate level skills and refining their technique. Dancers must get teacher approval before signing up for this level.
• Levels 3 & 4 - designed for the more skilled dancer who can execute the intermediate level skills with strong technique and is ready to be challenged with more complex dance steps and longer combinations.  Dancers must get teacher approval before signing up for this level.

Why Ballet Is a Must-Have for Lyrical & Contemporary Dancers

Ballet is the common language of dance—the technique, alignment, and strength you build at the barre translate directly into the sweeping lines and expressive movement of lyrical and contemporary styles. Regular ballet training:

• Builds a rock-solid foundation. Core placement, turnout, and precise footwork learned in ballet give dancers the control needed for every leap, turn, and floor phrase.
• Develops safe, functional strength. Barre and center work condition the exact muscle groups that protect joints and prevent injury during more athletic contemporary movement.
• Sharpens artistry and musicality. Ballet’s focus on line, balance, and breath transforms raw movement into graceful, emotionally resonant storytelling.
• Creates confident, versatile dancers. From auditions to performances, an understanding of ballet technique helps you pick up choreography faster and stand out onstage.

Simply put, ballet equips lyrical and contemporary dancers with the technical toolkit—and the artistic polish—to truly shine.
