The Ballet Center

Congratulations to US!!! It is our 13th anniversary year!!!

Etiquette Rule of the Month

Be on time.  You need to come early enough to change, put up your hair, and stretch before class

Appearance

Your body is your instrument.  Treat it with care.  How you present and take care of yourself always matters.  Your hair should be neat and your dance attire clean and orderly.  You will dance better and your audience will not be able to take their eyes from you!

The Real Deal

Any student dancer who wishes to become professional some day needs to take class at least 4 days a week.  You have to put in the time and energy if you expect to be in top form by the age of 18!

If you want to study dance more seriously than the recreational dancer, please come to the Director for advice on which classes to take.

TIP:

All jazz dancers should be taking a ballet class at least twice per week to improve their technique.  Jazz dance has its roots in classical dance, so in order to improve in jazz, you need to know your basics!
