The Open Program evening classes are perfect for students who want to try ballet or contemporary dance for the first time, as well as for young students who cannot attend the Summer Dance Intensive. New students ages 9-12 with previous dance training must complete a placement class to determine which level is appropriate prior to registration. All 7 year-olds, including those with prior dance training, should register for the Beginners Ballet class and must be 7 years old by June 27. Students with no formal training may enroll in the Beginners Ballet class without attending a placement class. Students provide their own dance attire. Classes will meet for six weeks (6/27/2022- 7/25/2022); no classes will be held on Monday, July 4.
Boys ages 9-12 are invited to attend an all boys ballet class taught by a male faculty member from the Estelle Dennis/Peabody Dance Training Program for Boys. Beginners are welcome, but must take a placement class to determine readiness for ballet training. This class offers an opportunity to audition for the ED/PD Training Program for the 2022-2023 school year. Classes will meet for four weeks (6/27/22-7/25/22); no classes will be held on Monday, July 4.
