The Recreational Division offers several class options for our beginner and intermediate dancers. This curriculum offers the wonder of classical ballet training and the always popular jazz, tap, hip hop and contemporary. Classes are taught on an age appropriate level. Special care is taken by our faculty to nurture our young dancers, help each individual focus on technique and develop their own artistic styles! Each class will entertain audiences at the annual Spring Performances at the Bama Theatre!
