Ballet

Elevate your dance journey with Marilyn's Academy of Dance Ballet Classes, where we prioritize the development of classical ballet skills with a strong emphasis on proper placement and alignment. Our classes are meticulously crafted to guide students through the nuances of ballet, building a solid foundation of strength, flexibility, and technical proficiency. Through barre and center work, students not only learn ballet vocabulary but also gain a heightened awareness of musicality as they dance to the timeless strains of classical music.

In addition to honing ballet techniques, our classes foster a collaborative spirit as students work with peers of their age, practicing group dynamics and teamwork. The curriculum covers a comprehensive review of basic ballet elements, including positions of the feet and arms, proper body alignment, turnout, ballet terminology, barre exercises, across-the-floor movements, and center work. Marilyn's Academy of Dance places a premium on developing attention skills, as students listen to the teacher's instructions and constantly focus on the proper carriage of the torso, arms, and back.

Beyond classical ballet, our classes provide a holistic approach, offering exercises that not only build muscle strength and increase flexibility but also establish a foundational skill set applicable to various dance styles. Join us at Marilyn's Academy of Dance and embark on a balletic journey that combines grace, discipline, and a love for the art of dance.
