From The Parent Student Handbook,
Why Ballet?
Dancers, by every definition, are athletes who require a strong physical and intellectual foundation in order to effectively pursue their craft and efficiently progress toward their goals. Modern, Jazz and Contemporary dance genres are all based upon and created from ballet technique, which serves as the bedrock of dance. The application of ballet not only cultivates unparalleled strength, mental focus and kinesthetic awareness, but it ultimately provides students with the ability to pursue diverse dance methods with greater skill and success.
It is for this reason, that we require all dancers placed in Jazz, Modern or Contemporary 3 or higher be concurrently enrolled in a ballet class.
Ballet is not required for Teen Program Classes but is HIGHLY recommended.
