Children's Ballet (age 8-12)

with Liz Vacco

Children's Ballet class description

This ballet class for 8-12 year olds is a great opportunity for children in this age group to work on technique and placement, to master new and challenging combinations (better known as sticker combinations for the prize that awaits upon mastery) and to move to the music! It's also a great chance to dance with friends
