BALLET PROGRAMS
ACADEMY
​
At Launch Dance Center our teachers implement instruction that is designed to produce dancers with both expressiveness and clear classical technique. Each level is created to be age-appropriate, building upon prior learning and preparing them for the next advancement. Proper technique, strength, stamina, and natural facility are required to start on pointe, with approval from the faculty.
Students are placed into a specific level by their ability & technique. Placement auditions are held in June and September. New students can take a trial placement class arranged through the front office, to determine their level. All Academy students are required to take the minimum number of ballet classes per week in their level. In today's world, dancers should be well rounded in all disciplines of dance. We highly recommend all dancers to explore other styles of dance.
