About

Upper Levels refine foundational alignment and build stamina and strength while cultivating artistry and musicality. Pointe work and men's technique are emphasized alongside expressive port de bras, pirouettes, and batterie. At the highest level, dancers focus on both technical precision and the expressive, individual artistry that brings ballet to life.

FLEX is a reduced class schedule offering more flexibility, designed for those seeking a strong ballet education with less time commitment. FLEX students are not eligible for Ensemble, Pas de Deux, or scholarships. Both Core and FLEX students participate in Character and Contemporary elective classes.

Tuition follows the weekly hours: a student is placed into one level and attends every class in it. Option 1 is traditionally chosen by students identifying as female and includes all pointe classes; Option 2 is traditionally chosen by students identifying as male and is taken in addition to Option 1, in place of pointe.
