Open Ballet
Open Ballet is tailored to those students who are in need of ballet as a supplement to another activity such as drill team, gymnastics, skating, etc. Students receive the same syllabus based technique as our leveled classes, however these classes are structured in such a way that can encompass a wider range of abilities. Teen students need to be aware there may be adults attending this lesson.
