Beginner Adult Ballet with Eli Alford

Beginner Adult Ballet with Eli Alford

BalletX is thrilled to announce a limited Open Class series led by our very own company dancers! For five weeks, January 26-March 1, dance into the new year with dynamic classes designed to challenge, inspire, and energize.

This class will follow the structure of a traditional ballet class, beginning with barre and moving into center. We will move through a series of dance combinations that will primarily focus on basic ballet technique principles while finding moments for personal expression and artistic freedom. This class is aimed at beginners, however, all experience levels are more than welcome! The ultimate goal is to guide all participants through a ballet class that is both informative and fun! Socks or ballet shoes are recommended as well as clothes you feel comfortable moving in.

Purchase class tickets individually for $20 ($25 day-of), or save with a 5-class bundle for $90! Student and professional discounts are available.
