Having a strong ballet technique is the key to excellence in many dance forms therefore our ballet program is offered to all of our students.
Contemporary/Lyrical

It is a dance style which connects the dancer to the words and emotion of the music while teaching the student to develop a high quality of movement and fluidity of expression. We highly recommend taking ballet to compliment this style of dance.
