In levels one through five, the 10 minutes before class starts are used to prepare ourselves for class: use the bathroom, secure our hair, gather the supplies we need for class (water bottles, pointe shoes, etc), and start to get into our bodies.

In levels one through five, the 10 minutes before class starts are used to prepare ourselves for class: use the bathroom, secure our hair, gather the supplies we need for class (water bottles, pointe shoes, etc), and start to get into our bodies.

At the earliest levels, getting prepared for class means using the bathroom (so as to avoid disruption during class time), changing into our dancing shoes, securing hair away from the face, and separating from adult caregivers.

If you danced as a kid or teen and are returning after a break of 5 years or more, we suggest starting in a beginning class. This gives your body time to remember what it knows, reintegrate concepts of alignment, stance, and rotation safely, and to build strength and stamina. After a series if you feel like you’re ready for more, talk to your teacher or our administrative team about your options.

We place students based on years of experience and time lapsed since the dancer was regularly in class. For example, if you have many years of experience dancing as a teen, took a break, and are coming back to class, we would suggest starting in Beginning Ballet. After a series in Beginning Ballet (typically 6-9 weeks), you and your teacher may agree that you should move up a level.

Ballet 4 begins at age 14 is often combined with Ballet 5 and may appear on the schedule as Ballet 4/5. Ballet 4 students attend ballet class four times per week and are strongly encouraged to attend modern jazz and enroll in repertory class. The repertory class has performance opportunities in both the fall and spring semesters, including Danspace’s Nutcracker Project and Tapestry. Ballet 5 is the most advanced level offered at Danspace. These students are training in classical ballet at an intermediate/advanced level and are considered for leadership opportunities in the school like classroom assistants, front desk shifts, additional performance opportunities, and more.

Ballet 3 begins around age 12 and is the first intermediate level at Danspace. Ballet 3 students attend ballet class three times per week and the classes are now 90 minutes. Ballet 3 students may also elect to add a modern class. Students in Ballet 3 may be evaluated for pointe shoes at the discretion of the teacher and school director. Ballet 3 students will also be invited to participate in Danspace’s Nutcracker Presentation with in-studio performances.

Ballet 2 begins around age 10. This class builds upon the foundation of Ballet 1 and continues to develop knowledge and mastery of ballet vocabulary and movements, including the majority of typical barre exercises. Ballet 2 students attend ballet class twice per week and may elect to add a modern class.

Ballet 1 begins at age 8 and is the first level of a traditional ballet class. We spend more time at the barre and continue to build our knowledge and mastery of ballet vocabulary and movements. Ballet 1 students attend ballet class one time per week.

Pre-Ballet is for ages 6-8. This class builds upon the foundation of Serendipity and introduces basic ballet positions and movements while continuing to foster the dancers’ creativity and artistry. At this level we begin routines that we find in a ballet class , including some exercises like plies, tendus, dégagés, etc. By the end of Pre-Ballet, your dancer should be prepared to successfully enter Ballet 1.

Serendipity is a creative movement-based class for ages 3.5-6. At this level we are focused on learning the routine of a dance class (warm-up, across the floor, choreography and movement explorations that culminate in a performance). We are also learning behavioral expectations for dance class (listening, following developmentally appropriate instructions, noticing the other people in class with us, being considerate and kind to others, and more). By the end of Serendipity, your dancer should be prepared to successfully enter Pre-Ballet.

Taking dance class has several benefits for dancers of all ages. Dance engages the mind. When you are in dance class, you are required to focus your mind in the present, which offers adult dancers the opportunity to center themselves.

Taking dance class has several benefits for dancers of all ages. Dance engages the mind. When you are in dance class, you are required to focus your mind in the present, which offers adult dancers the opportunity to center themselves. Dance also engages both sides of the brain simultaneously, helping strengthen your neural pathways. Dance is a good workout. Dance is a full-body workout that helps improve posture, core strength, and flexibility. Dance is good for the soul. By dancing with others in class we discover the power of the ensemble, the collective. By coming together with others we create community and see positive benefits to our well-being.

This class is a combination of class/lab time, independent rehearsal time, and feedback time, with an informal showing in the spring. The fall session is more of a dance creation lab, working on small studies to expand your range and experience in creating successful movement ideas. The spring is more focused on creating a short finished dance work on a topic that interests you, culminating in the showing at the end of the session. You will be guided by instructor Mary Armentrout, an award winning, internationally acclaimed choreographer. This class is open to teens and adults – choreographic experience is not required, but always a plus, interest in learning how we can put movements together to express our inner ideas is what’s needed!
