BALLET (THE FOUNDATION)

BALLET Dance Class

It is very important to have ballet dance classes in your dance training. Ballet is the basis for all dance forms, which combines the beauty of music with dance.  Young children will learn basic body and foot positions, barre technique, center floor technique, and terminology.

More advanced students will learn to emphasize developing flexibility and strengthening the legs, feet, and the core of the body.  Cumberland Dance Academy incorporates classical ballet and contemporary ballet, which employs classical ballet technique with a greater range of upper-body movement.

In keeping with the tradition of the classical ballet, we require all ballet students to wear a black or gray leotard, pink footed tights, and pink ballet slippers.  All hair must be pinned back away from the face into a ballet bun.  Male students must wear black shorts or dance pants, a solid white t-shirt, and black ballet shoes.
