Fundamentals of Ballet (6-week Course)
Mondays, 7 – 8:30PM at the Phelps Center in Seattle
Tuesdays, 7 – 8:30PM at The Francia Russell Center in Bellevue

This class is a precursor to our Beginner I class and will break down basic ballet positions, terminology, and musicality to slowly build on your learning each week and enhance your skills as a novice dancer. Little to no ballet experience required.

NEW! Fundamentals II (6-week Course)
Wednesdays, 7 – 8:30PM at the Phelps Center in Seattle
Fridays, 6 – 7:30PM at The Francia Russell Center in Bellevue

Following completion of the Fundamentals I course (ideally 1-2 times), Fundamentals II is the subsequent level offering a further dive in ballet positions, terminology, and musicality at a slightly quicker pace.

Fundamentals I and II are separate classes. Students are not permitted to take both at the same time. Fundamentals classes are designed to be taken for all 6 weeks, concurrently. Please note that classes are non-transferable, and there are no refund or make-up classes if you are unable to attend. Exceptions will be made in the case of an injury and corresponding doctor’s note. Fundamentals courses are now an hour and 30 minutes long.
