No partner required. Just bring curiosity, patience, and a willingness to connect—your tango journey starts here.

Intro to Ballet Series for Adults

Our Intro to Ballet Series offers three distinct 6-week courses designed to build a strong foundation in ballet technique. Each course explores the fundamentals — including basic foot and arm positions, posture, alignment, terminology, and coordination — through work at the barre and in the centre.

While each course has its own unique theme, together they provide a well-rounded introduction to ballet pedagogy. Dancers may take the courses in any order; they are not sequential.

Intro to Ballet: Grace and Flow

• Theme: Grace, body lines, and fluid upper-body movement

• Focus: Port de bras, adagio sequences, posture, alignment, basic foot positions, pliés, tendus, and barre/centre work

• Goal of this course: Help beginners move with poise, develop coordination between arms and legs, understand lines of the upper body at a deeper level, how the arm positions frame the movements of the legs and torso, establish linking sequences and a strong technical foundation

Who this course is for:
Perfect for adults who are new to ballet or returning after time away. This course is ideal for anyone who wants to improve posture, coordination, and fluidity of movement while experiencing the grace and artistry of classical ballet in a welcoming, beginner-friendly environment.

Intro to Contemporary: Technique & Musicality

Build a strong technical foundation while discovering how your body responds to music, rhythm, and breath. This course introduces students to essential contemporary technique inspired by modern dance styles such as Horton (shapes and strength), Graham (spirals and contractions), and Limón (breath and fall/recovery).

Dancers will learn fundamental concepts like weight shift, breath phrasing, connected pathways through the spine, and how dynamics shape movement quality. Each week includes conditioning, centre work, across-the-floor progressions, and phrase building.
We’ll apply our developing technique to choreography, working toward a short piece learned throughout the session. Students get to experience how structured contemporary technique transforms into expressive, musical performance.

Goal: To develop coordination, rhythm, contemporary alignment, and breath-driven movement while building confidence in musicality through choreography.

Who this is good for: Beginners (ages 18+) who want a clear technical roadmap for contemporary, or who enjoy learning through structure, rhythm, and choreography. Especially great for dancers transitioning from ballet or jazz, or those who want a technique-focused introduction before exploring floorwork or improvisation.
