Ballet

The Ballet Program at The Mandelstam School introduces young students to the world of ballet in an inspiring and nurturing environment. Classes encourage students to explore movement, creativity and musicality, while building primary dance skills and a lifelong appreciation for the arts.

The ballet staff has over 40 years of dance teaching experience in the traditional classical style.  French terminology is introduced, as well as basic anatomy, injury prevention, proper body alignment and posture.

During class time, which meets once a week, dancers explore classical technique and age appropriate choreography.  The ballet program augments the high standards and quality of the arts infused in The Mandelstam School curriculum.
