The workshops are designed for those students who desire the best training available and for those who are up for the challenge of a serious ballet workshop.

Ballet and Modern Workshop
This Beginner level workshop for ages 10 and up meets 3 times a week: Tuesdays/Thursdays and Fridays from 4:00-5:00 PM and includes 2 one hour ballet technique classes and 1 one hour modern dance class. The basics of ballet and modern dance will be covered in this class. The emphasis will be on individual attention and the personal growth of each dancer. This workshop is great for students who want to improve their technique. This class is recommended for students who are preparing to audition for Performing Arts High Schools in the fall.
