  The goal of these youth ballet classes are to instill a love of movement and dance for children ages 3-10. Young dancers will learn basic ballet movements in a positive and fun environment. Proper technique is taught through creative dances and imagination. The structured classes will focus on the basics of gross motor movement including strength, coordination, and flexibility, as well as socialization and group learning. Every class will be a dance adventure of music and movement! Teaching ballet to your littles is Leona Cichy. Leona began dancing at the age of two and is trained in ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical, and modern, among other styles. She was a member of the competitive Legacy Dance Company in New Jersey for ten years, and has over 8 years of teaching experience in a variety of dance styles. Leona also has extensive experience in youth development and programming.
  Registration is now closed.  We look forward to welcoming you back to the Cultural Center for Ballet this Fall!  Please call us with any questions at 218-385-3339.
