Youth Division: Pre-Ballet, Pre-Primary, Primary, and Ballet 1
This program builds in intensity with kind and experienced instruction. Children learn age appropriate exercises while still getting opportunities to explore movement and imagination. The learning environment has a good balance of structure and fun, while offering an excellent foundation for more advanced training for those who continue to dance. Children gain coordination, flexibility, muscle strength, and active listening skills along with a significant amount of ballet/dance vocabulary. Dancers in this program may also enroll in Modern, Jazz and/or Tap. Dancers are eligible to audition for our Nutcracker, and all are dancers cast in our Spring Story Ballet.

In these levels dancers are learning more complex barre work and building a wide vocabulary of steps. Technical training continues with an emphasis on proper alignment and safe, correct movement. Dancers in these levels begin 75 minute classes and may opt to take more classes per week.

Multiple classes are not required except for Mass Ballet Ensemble and Level 5 dancers who wish to be promoted to dancing en pointe.
Certainly the more a dancer takes class the easier it is to make technical gains. However, some dancers who are focused and committed to learning in the classroom can succeed with only one ballet class a week through Ballet 5.
