Ballet is the foundation of all dance! From our Itty Bitty Ballet class to our more intense classes for older dancers, our students learn the importance of technique and body awareness through the lens of ballet.
Forte's ballet curriculum is taught by a former professional ballerina with years of instructional experience. Students will learn ballet terminology and basic ballet steps with proper technique. Students will spend time at the barre, in center and doing across the floor movement as they progress. These classes are an excellent way to build strength and grace. If you're interested in learning more, descriptions of our classes/levels are below. And if you think ballet could be for you, try a class with us! |

Ballet Class Options
Tutu & Tumble (Ages 4 to 5 years)
Your petite ballerina will love this class! From the moment they walk into the studio, we will be stretching, skipping, pointing and learning the basics of ballet, all while having fun! This class will also focus on musicality, fun acro-dance moves and overall coordination. This class will participate in Forte's annual Showcase at the end of year, which is optional for all students and gives friends and family a chance to see what their dancer has learned!
