We started the last week of classes for our year-round program.

Our students have made such wonderful progress throughout the course of the year and we are looking forward to continuing that progress at our summer programs.

Attending a summer program is instrumental in helping a student make progress - not only in their technical abilities, but their artistic ones as well.

Our students participate in daily technique classes as well as pointe (for those who qualify) and variations, mixed with Pilates and stretch classes as well as character dance classes and more!

With less distractions in the summer and fewer obligations students have the ability to hone their focus.

Delaney is an 11 year-old student at the Patterson School Of Ballet

We love seeing our students make progress. These fundamentals are building blocks upon which the rest of classical ballet technique is built upon.

If you don’t understand the fundamentals, it’s like trying to do math without understanding how to count first.

Just a little fun for International Dance Day!

Dance is more than a celebration of culture, it is communities coming together and spending time together. Dance is a universal language just like math.
