DESCRIPTION OF CLASSES Students must have a minimum of two years previous training. Following an initial class, our faculty determines the placement of the student in either intermediate or advanced classes. All classes are accompanied by piano and held in our spacious studios. A two hour class is given every morning at all levels, Monday through Saturday. Ballet classes are also held in the afternoon and include pointe, variations and repertory. Jazz & Broadway Dance Theatre and Choreographic Workshops are taught in the afternoon. Rehearsals are scheduled on some evenings in preparation for the final performance.
