Ballet/Pointe
Ballet classes are offered for children ages 3 through adults. For younger children, we incorporate technique and fun in every class. Children will learn the basics and explore creative movement which includes props, stories, and games to enhance coordination, musicality, and love of ballet.
Axis of Movement supports many ballet techniques including Royal Academy of Dance, Cecchetti, Vaganova, and French methods. This allows our dancers to readily adapt to diverse ballet methods within the dance community. The emphasis for older and mature dancers is to provide strong classical ballet training through barre, centerwork, and pointe technique.
