The Boston Ballet School North Shore Studio at the Lynch/van Otterloo YMCA in Marblehead offers Summer programs and classes for kids aged 3 and up. Classes are age appropriate and focus on the skills required to bring your child to the next level. Coed programs range from standard ballet class for 3-7 year olds to more intensive workshops for tweens and teens.
Children's Program: Ballet Stories (3-4 Years Old)
1 week session, 2 hours each day
Each day children take a 45-minute creative movement/pre-ballet class: after a short break, they will explore a classical ballet through the characters, storyline, music and mime. The stories will come alive with the students' own natural curiosity and creativity. No prior ballet training or audition is necessary.
