Welcome to the Classical Ballet Beginnings Winter Program.
Each school will present both a technique demonstration and a choreographed dance. Some smaller groups have been combined for their technique demonstration.

 

​

 

Technique Demonstration:

This segment includes 5–6 ballet combinations that showcase how dancers train their bodies through repetition. They develop attention to detail, body awareness, musicality, flexibility, strength, and posture.

 

 

Choreographed Dance:

Each group performs a piece set to music, learned week by week and refined through a “cleaning” process.
They build teamwork, music counting, memorization, spatial awareness, and attention to detail.

 

Enjoy the show!
