Description: This class is designed and reserved for Beginner Students. The class is 90 minutes and focuses on building proper technique, vocabulary, room organization/etiquette, and confidence in fundamental ballet work. This class will offer a full barre and slowly build center work. The 90 minutes will also reserve time at the end of class for the teacher to answer questions and work on new concepts in a focused way. This class will be reserved for beginner students only, so we maintain a class environment with a focus, intention, and energy appropriate for stress-free learning.
The class will be rooted in movement and also offer written or verbal information that allows students to “speak ballet” and be a part of the “corps de ballet,” i.e. gaining the skills needed to respond to a phrase given verbally by the teacher or knowing
the different patterns that you will see in class and on stage (diagonals, center floor, etc). The teacher might provide worksheets to support learning new vocabulary and might recommend a reading or viewing to supplement the class work. The goal of this
class is to create a healthy and functional foundation for studying ballet and making ballet a beautiful life-long activity. The class will prepare students to advance to the slow-intermediate class.
