Class Descriptions
Adult and Teen Ballet Classes (Beginning, Intermediate and Advanced)
Enjoy the benefits of quality dance training in the remarkable studios of Pacific Northwest Ballet School. Open classes are taught by the School’s nationally acclaimed faculty and are accompanied by professional pianists. Classes are designed to enhance each student’s experience to the fullest in a stimulating and creative atmosphere. Various levels of experience are accommodated, from beginning through advanced. Participants may purchase 5-, 10- or 20-class dance cards valid for the entire semester.
PNB Subscribers receive a 20% discount on Open Program classes. Single class discounts are also available for professional dancers and dance instructors (with current professional documentation).
Modern Classes
Modern dance is a vital dance form that is increasingly incorporated into ballet choreography. PNBS Modern classes combine principles from various modern dance techniques to provide an invigorating and challenging workout for both body and mind. Modern dancers go beyond performing the movement; they become the movement through intense kinesthetics. PNBS' Open Modern class welcomes all styles of Modern dance.
PNBConditioning
Experience a revitalizing body sculpting workout. PNBConditioning classes are designed to provide students with a non-impact method of training and are an excellent way to gain abdominal strength, flexibility and long, lean muscles. All classes are taught by PNBConditioning trainers. For more information, visit our PNBConditioning webpage, or call (206) 441-2435 (Seattle) or (425) 451-1241 (Eastside).
