Boys Class

Boys Require A Different Training Class For Dance just like girls require a Pointe Class.
Andrew Rist, Co-Director, teaches the boys class. The Boys’ Class is held once a week. All boys, pre-ballet through the upper levels, take the same class. Advanced boys stand in the front and the younger boys stand in the back. Elements of jump, turn and strength are focused on in the class. As the boys progress through the regular levels, (pre-ballet – level 8), time is taken at the end of regular technique class to focus on men’s steps while the girls work on pointe.
