The
School
Founded in 1973, the School principally
focuses on the instruction and training of dances in classical ballet with offerings in
ballet technique, pointe, and variations. Supplementing our classical venue are
courses in creative movement, pre-ballet, jazz, character, and modern dance techniques
with levels ranging from beginning to advanced for children and adults. Former
students have gone to perform professionally in New York, Chicago, Atlanta, Washington
D.C., and Florida, among others.
