Some classes are solely for technique, while others may involve performance in the annual recital and/or competition depending on the teacher’s discretion.
Dancers have less participation requirements. We only ask that children attend regularly and take part in our year end performance.
Fees include annual registration, monthly tuition, costume costs for performance classes and the video / photo fee for our year end show production.
Intensive Training Program (ITP)
Season 13 classes run from September 2024 to May 2025
Dancers must be recommended for this program and maintain the minimum training requirements and technical standards to continue in the program each year.
PB/Level 1 (ages 6-8) are required to take a minimum of one ballet classes per week.
Level 2 & 3 (ages 8-12) are required to take a minimum of two ballet classes per week. Dancers doing ballet solos and small groups must take three ballet classes per week.

Most performance classes will participate in multiple festivals and competitions. This includes extra costs including travel expenses and may require additional weekend rehearsals.

Dancers are offered additional performance opportunities i.e. community events, photo shoots, workshops, field trips etc.
Greater financial and time commitments for parents.
