BALLET ADVANCED
This course fits the personal interests and goals of experienced dancers, you can decide to train intensively once or twice a week, take a single lesson or commit to our complete course and join our performing group.
Our lesson is physically challenging, we advise taking at least 2 lessons per week and regular stretching and strengthening exercises at home. Advanced dancers know that real results can be achieved only with consistent, correct uninterrupted practice.
Our lesson pays special attention to the cleanliness and the quality of the movement, as well as to developing your artistry and dance feeling through the center variations. Our class is not a workout but a technical and dancing experience.
The practice of classical variations at the end of each lesson will improve your musicality, dynamics, and presence, and at the same time, you will feel satisfied to see how your hard work is paying off.
We work at the barre, center, allegro, diagonals and floor barre.
Our most advanced & committed dancers have the opportunity to join our performing group and dance at the theater in our end-of-season performance. Read below to find out all details or contact us at nane.danza@gmail.com if you are interested on that option.

POINTE CLASS + PERFORMING GROUP
Our pointe class is only available for dancers registered in our performing group, evaluation class and informative meeting are required.
The performing group is only for advanced dancers committed to training at our school at least 2 times per week and rehearsing the whole school year. The level of the pointe class is intermediate, advised for dancers with at least 2 years of correct uninterrupted pointe practice. For safety, only dancers who already have the strength and correct fundamentals of pointe work at the barre, center, and diagonals can join our pointe class. We train focused on developing the skills we need to develop for performance and our end-of-season performance.
In our pointe class, we work in preparation exercises, barre, center points, and diagonals. For the performance, we work in original choreographies and the dancers play a very active role in the creative process. Additionally, it is possible to perform classical variations upon request for the dancers who have the technical level and commitment for extra rehearsals.
Are you an advanced dancer committed to training and rehearsing 2 times per week at our school but you don't have pointe experience or are you recovering from injury and cannot do points? No problem! You can still join our performing group and dance on flats. Satefy first.
If you are interested in joining us in the performing group and enjoy dancing with us on stage, contact us at nane.danza@gmail.com so we can help you with more information and schedule an evaluation class.

The Portal - 2023
"I have taken the intermediate/advanced ballet classes from Nane for a couple of years now. Additionally, I am also in the performing group. Being in the ballet classes and the performing group is really nice, as during the ballet classes I get to work on my technique, and during rehearsals I can apply that technique with the prospect of dancing on stage. Nane fuels my passion and hard work for dance through her own enthusiasm and passion that she brings to every class. She creates an accepting, hard-working, yet passionate, and loving environment. Consequently, she has made me a much better dancer. I am very much looking forward to coming back to the studio coming September and taking the ballet lessons, and preparing for the next performance. For anyone that might be interested in joining, I would say come and enjoy a lesson with Nane Danza. I know that after my first lesson I never wanted to leave this dance studio!!
