About This Activity
Suggested for ages 5+, Ballet 1 is designed to introduce students to ballet. At this stage in training, the objective of classes is to introduce the lexicon and theory of ballet. Ballet 1 will focus on giving dancers a solid ballet technique with emphasis on understanding correct body placement, proper use of turnout, coordination of the upper body (epaulement), and use of arms (port de bras) as well as conditioning and stretching. Classes include warm-up, stretches, technique, across-the-floor progressions, and choreography combinations.
