Enjoy a half-day of ballet with our Ballet Retreats! These Sunday workshops are focused to give students back to back classes to really get the most out of their training. The day begins with a ballet class which is followed by a Technique Tips class. This class can be focused on pirouettes, jumping, port-de-bra, or anything that we are hoping to dig deeping into. Then students will get the opportunity to learn repertoire!
Everyone deserves a bit of a treat, so join us!
