Due to the amount of teens and adults interested in an "evening workshop" because they can't make the 2-6pm time we are forming a
special
"evening workshop" for teens and adults of Intermediate Level Ballet 6:30pm-9:00pm.
The 6:30- 7:30 technique classes above will remain the same - however based on abilities of students involved we are catering the
7:30-9:00 for them.  
This will vary between focus on adage, grande and petite allegro, turns,  porte de bras, feet and ankle strengthening,
classical variations,  vocabulary, choreography, musicality, dance history, dance anatomy & Physiology.  There will also be the option of
performing in the June 27th Informal Workshop Performance.
(2 1/2 per evening= 10hr per week)

Tuition PER WEEK:
1 evening= $25                       Tuition PER 4 WEEKS: 1 evening = $90           Tuition All 6wks: 1 evening= $120
2 evenings a week = $45                                               2 evenings= $160                                    2 evenings = $216
3 evenings a week= $65                                                3 evenings = $234                                   3 evenings = $348
4 evenings a week= $80                                                4 evenings = $298                                   4 evenings = $394
