Beginner Ballet: Learn the Basics

You're never too old to begin ballet

In this introduction to ballet you will develop an understanding of ballet history and the basic elements from plié (bend) to pirouette (turn). Your bedroom becomes the studio in this class, giving you the opportunity to work on a sequence of steps to keep on practicing throughout iso.
