Class information - Herriman Location

*Pre-Ballet: for dancers 3-4 years old
Pre-Ballet A is designed for dancers who are experiencing ballet class alone for the first time. Dancers will learn how to follow the teacher's instructions, mimic the teacher's movements for all exercises in class, interact with other dancers, and follow class rules. We focus on creative movement and refining locomotive skills to help improve coordination. Additionally, we utilize imagery to bring your dancer's imagination to life, and sow the seeds for technical development down the road. Ballet should be very fun at this age and we know your dancer will have a wonderful time in class!

*Primary Ballet A: for dancers 5-8 years old
Primary Ballet A is a beginning ballet level. Designed for dancers who are 5-8 years old, this class introduces many classical ballet concepts for the first time. As in previous levels, dancers still mimic the teacher for most exercises, but are becoming more self-sufficient in memorizing combinations and executing without visual cues. Dancers begin to understand the use of ballet terminology in this class. In addition to musicality and artistry, we encourage dancers to use correct muscles by implementing cross-training exercises, and safely begin to increase flexibility. With emphasis on imaginative movement, dancers in Primary Ballet A enjoy every class.

*Primary Ballet B
Primary Ballet B is the first level that is structured like a traditional ballet class. Dancers work on ballet technique at the barre and center, with an increased focus on connective movements and jumps. This class is slightly longer than Primary Ballet A in order to cover all of the material. Flexibility, musicality, and performance quality are improved in this level. Dancers are more focused in Primary Ballet B and begin to act like classical ballet students.

*Teen Ballet
Teen Ballet is taught like a true ballet class with special emphasis placed on conditioning, posture, alignment, barre work, connective steps, footwork and turnout. Dancers are challenged and held accountable to remember combinations without the help of the teacher. Additionally, dancers learn and develop their artistry and performance quality.

Dress Code
Dancers need to adhere to West Point Ballet's dress code. Female dancers should be in a black leotard, pink footed tights, pink ballet shoes, and hair in a neat ballet bun. Male dancers should be in black shorts or ballet leggings, with a plain white compression style shirt, black ballet shoes, and black socks. Undergarments should not be seen.
