“Ballet is the greatest foundation of any dance form. It teaches elements of balance and suspension, discipline and grace, movement dynamics and clarity of lines. It is an integral art form developed to enhance musicality, precision, spatial awareness and overall control of the mind, body and soul. The Ballet is Russian based and allows students to explore the Vaganova technique in a very open and safe environment, allowing dancers to excel towards their passion.”
