Based in ballet and contemporary training, our Teens Program offers three levels of training for ages 11-17 to assure that students are challenged and learning in an environment that allows for maximum achievement. Students who have trained in the Teens Program have been accepted into and continued their dance training at summer programs and universities.
All classes for Teens 1 and 2 will take place in-person. Teens 3 classes will be offered in-person and online. Learn more about our range of offerings below and by clicking on “Schedule 2021-2022” above.
