Intermediate Ballet is designed for dancers with a solid foundation in ballet who are ready to refine their technique and take on more advanced material. Students will work to strengthen their alignment, coordination, musicality, balance, and overall movement quality while developing greater strength, control, and stamina. Class will include more complex barre and center exercises, longer combinations, changes of direction, and increased use of port de bras and épaulement. Emphasis will be placed on applying corrections, developing consistency, and performing movement with greater clarity, confidence, and artistry. This class is ideal for dancers with 4+ years of ballet experience, including students training in advanced levels.

What to Wear:
We recommend comfortable, form-fitting athletic apparel that allows for a full range of motion. Hair should be secured away from the face, and we ask that you avoid wearing dangling jewelry. Ballet shoes are required for all ballet classes.
