Ballet

Teaches students strength, discipline, and rhythm, ballet is a very strict yet fun genre. At AIM we follow the teachings of the Cecchetti method, which is known as Classical Ballet. The five basic positions of the feet in ballet are the foundation of every other step in classical ballet.  If you are looking for a great way to help your child socialize with other children, and learn great life skills, ballet classes is a great place to start.
