Ballet
Elementary Ballet Technique class designed for students age 8-10 with some prior ballet experience. Students will continue to strengthen and refine their technique, built upon learning solid placement and consistent work habits. Class will include a range of barre exercises with emphasis on alignment. Center work will focus on the development of stability and body coordination. Students will continue building clean technical habits and movement clarity in Allegro. Linking and transitional steps as well as diagonals and menège will be further developed and refined. Students will be challenged with increased complexity as they advance and their confidence in using the physical mechanics will gradually build up.
