Classical Ballet

Classical Ballet is a beautiful and theatrical form of dance, and is the base of almost every type of dance. This class assists with balance, body placement, and alignment in dance.  Ballet is beneficial to many types of sports, and helps to develop postural alignment, strength and flexibility.
