Cleveland City Dance started the All-Boys’ Ballet camp to bring boys together in a positive environment building mutual camaraderie, and to build on specific strength and movement qualities necessary for male dancers. The boys learn valuable skills such as jumps, turns, and holding themselves strong for presenting themselves well on stage. They also work on building upper body strength to prepare them for the physical rigors it takes to build their dance skills and eventually to partner other dancers including lifts and assists. This strong athletic foundation of coordination, flexibility and strength are developed with technique, artistry, and love for the dance profession for students to realize their full potential. The program is for boys ages 7-12. Wednesday evenings 4:30-6:301pm with Ethan Lee.
