Friday: Beginning Ballet [Ages 6-8]

American Repertory Ballet’s Beginning Ballet uses dance as an effective tool to engage young children while helping them to understand and control their body’s movements. Our instructor will lead students in a stretch/warm-up session, followed by basic Ballet technique, vocabulary, and fun dance games. Gentlemen are encouraged to attend -- no bun or tutu required. A strong foundation in dance can lead to success in a wide variety of athletic endeavors.
