Learn ballet, jazz, and more while dancing to the music of your favorite Disney Princesses.
We're rallying for all volleyball players looking to improve their skills. Each class will focus on fundamentals, while also enjoying game play to implement their skills.
This class will focus on basic ballet concepts, vocabulary, and etiquette, while also encouraging creativity, musicality, and coordination for school-age children. Students will work on introductory steps, body alignment, etiquette and basic ballet vocabulary. A significant portion of the class is spent at the barre, focusing on exercises that build strength, flexibility, and proper alignment.Â
