Beginning A (Age 3-4)
Park City

Beginning Level A classes are interactive, where children learn the foundation of dance and discover the joy of movement. We believe a child’s (and parent’s) early experiences with dance should make a positive and lasting impression. Activities vary weekly and focus on developing fundamental motor skills, strength, rhythm, and coordination. In a creative setting, children learn self-expression, self-discipline, and respect for others. Ballet/Tap Combo class is also offered. Students must be potty-independent with no exceptions.

2025-2026 PLACEMENT CLASS

Elementary C (Ages 8 and Up)
Park City

Elementary C is the introduction to the fundamentals of classical ballet technique building to advanced beginner skills. The focus during these formative years of training is on traditional classical ballet techniques as defined in the Ballet West Academy syllabus. Students improve their understanding of proper ballet terminology and increase their awareness of anatomy, posture, and correct alignment. We begin to emphasize musicality, and further develop strength, coordination, and flexibility. Dancers should expect to spend about 2 years in the Elementary C levels. Students may be required to repeat this level and summer classes are strongly encouraged to stay on track for fall placement.

Current dancers placed in Elementary C by Allison DeBona are welcome to register.

If you are a new student and interested in Elementary C, please email Allison DeBona at adebona@balletwest.org to schedule a placement class.

Tap

Tap is an integral part of an expanded dance curriculum. Tap is beneficial in many ways, including increasing cardiovascular fitness, strength, flexibility and coordination. Tap builds strength in the legs and feet as well as increasing flexibility in the hips, knees and ankles. Tap also enhances cognitive abilities. To become proficient, dancers must develop muscle memory and mental acuity. Tap develops a great sense of rhythm and timing. Best of all… tap is just plain fun!
