Teaching Philosophy

Project Ballet maintains the highest standards of classical ballet training while still respecting the dignity of each child. This balance is not easily achieved and is often overlooked in elite level ballet schools. It is of paramount importance to our faculty and staff that each student at Project Ballet is respected, encouraged and supported. This environment is what sets us apart from most pre-professional ballet programs. We love ballet and we love this organization. It is our greatest hope that our students and their families will feel and share in this enthusiasm.

Curriculum

Exclusively committed to training children, Project Ballet follows a classical ballet syllabus carefully developed over the last 20 years by Artistic Director, Beth McLeish. Inspired primarily by teachings of Marcia Dale Weary and Melinda Howe - our syllabus develops dancers with an exceptionally solid technical foundation. Our curriculum begins with one lesson per week for three year old dancers and increases to include the daily study of ballet technique, pointe, contemporary dance and cross training classes as the child progresses through the levels. Our senior level dancers are versatile and well equipped 21st century dancers.
