It’s an end-of-season tradition and our favorite performance of the year: We hit the Academy of Music stage one more time to celebrate all of the growth and accomplishments of our students over the last year in this demonstration of class levels. This performance strips away the costume and glitter of all our season shows. The audience will enjoy the technique and artistry that PVB offers to its students from age 4 through graduating seniors in class technique and repertory pieces.

This year we’re adding a number of new children’s class options — and a couple for parents, too:

DANCE WITH ME BALLET for 18 months-3 years with a parent

TINY TOTS for 3-4 year-olds

COMMUNITY TEEN BALLET for beginners or advanced beginners 12 years+.

That’s in addition to our Community Ballet class (ages 4-5), modern (9-15), and our entire pre-professional training program.

PARENT TRAP! MOVEMENT FOR MOMS & DADS

The class will combine ballet and modern to give parents 45 minutes of “me time.” Classes will include a basic ballet barre, long stretches, and energetic movement phrases. Dancers of all levels and ages welcome.
