Flex Level

Our Flex Level Ballet Classes
Pre-teen & Teenage Moderate Division
Ages 11+

Ms. Theresa Shampine, Artistic Director

Our Flex Level classes are for dancers who have reached an intermediate level of dancing or higher and need a more flexible schedule than our Conservatory division offers. All ballet classes are taught in an engaging and loving atmosphere emphasizing creativity and individuality, while still maintaining high standards and appropriate etiquette. Students will continue to grow in their technique and artistry while having the time to pursue other passions outside of dance. Friendships blossom as our students learn the art of dance together in semi-private classes with dedicated instructors. Students are placed by the director. No auditions are required. A complimentary placement/trial class is offered.

New families joining our school also enjoy the benefits of our Flex Level. The focused attention our students receive is perfect for pre-teen and teenage dancers who are trying to build on their existing technique and work towards possible future acceptance into our Conservatory Training Program. Our faculty works with all of the students individually to best construct their own dance training path.

All Flex Level dancers are required to take only two Ballet Technique classes per week. A third day of ballet training per week is optional and can be arranged by the director. Hip Hop class is offered as a valuable companion technique.

All Flex Level dancers perform in our annual spring performance and may be invited to perform in our annual Nutcracker as well. All ballet rehearsals take place at a designated repertoire time concurrent with their required Ballet Technique classes.
