About Balletschool

Balletschool opened in January, 1997 on West Rio Road. In January 2005, the school moved to it's current 6,500 square foot facility that features three spacious studios with professionally built floors, a paved, lit parking area, changing rooms and a waiting area all on the ground level.
During the regular school year, September through May, the school provides ballet classes offering professional instruction following the Royal Academy of Dance syllabus. The emphasis is on proper technique and performance style in accordance with the body's stage of development. The method caters to any student -- whether serious about dance as a career option or not. Subjects included in each class level are ballet, character and free-movement. For the adult student, there is a choice of classes ranging from easy to challenging. Summer courses are offered for children and adults.

Uniforms are worn in the Children's division. Each class wears it's own color of leotard. Proper leg and footwear is required at all times. The school supplies all costuming for the annual recital held in the late spring. There is no additional fee to be included in this performance.
