🩰 DIVISION SPOTLIGHT: BALLET 1 🩰

Our Ballet 1 Division is where the magic of Pre-Ballet grows into something even more special focused classical training! ✨

This is the division where our dancers really start to shine with barre work, center practice, across-the-floor progressions, and their very first introductory ballet combinations. Strength, coordination, flexibility, musicality, and artistry all come together as our dancers build their technique in a positive, encouraging environment that never loses its sense of wonder. 🎀

Classes are a full hour long, giving our teachers the time to help each dancer refine their ballet vocabulary and develop proper placement, alignment, posture, and movement quality — the building blocks for a lifetime of dance!

📌 Dancers must be 8 years old by September 1st to enroll in Ballet 1.

Ready to see your dancer take the next step in their ballet journey? Enrollment for the 26/27 Academic Year is open now! Link in bio to register.

"Ms. Val, thank you for creating the best, most welcoming, most magical place for these tiny dancers to flourish." 🩰

Words like these are EXACTLY why we do what we do! Our teachers pour so much love into every class, every correction, and every little moment of encouragement and it means the world to know it doesn't go unnoticed.

To our Petite Pas families: THANK YOU for trusting us with your dancers. We don't take it for granted!

Ready to see the magic for yourself? We still have limited openings for our 26/27 season. We are just starting in a few weeks! Head to petitepasballet.com to learn more and enroll!

🩰 DIVISION SPOTLIGHT: CHILDREN’S DIVISION 🩰

This is the age where independence starts to bloom and we LOVE it! Our Children’s Division embraces that more independent spirit while teaching the true fundamentals of classical ballet. ✨

We never lose the magic and whimsy of our storybook approach, but this division introduces a bit more structure as our dancers grow all while protecting those beautiful imaginations that make them who they are!

Classes are 45 minutes, offered weekly all Academic Year long, and split into three levels:
✨ Children’s 1 — must be 3 by 9/1
✨ Children’s 2 — must be 4 by 9/1
✨ Children’s 3 — must be 5 by 9/1

Enrollment for Fall 26/27 is open now no contracts, monthly billing, and open enrollment while spots last!

🩰 DIVISION SPOTLIGHT: PETITE TOT 🩰

Even as early as 18 months, dancers benefit from an early introduction to ballet while exploring their creative potential of both body AND mind. Classes are 45 minutes long, meet weekly for the entire Academic Year, and are full of whimsical movement, creativity, and discovery. 🌟

And the best part? Our Petite Tot dancers get to shine on stage too — they participate in our End of Year Showcase!

💛 A TESTIMONIAL WE'RE STILL SMILING ABOUT 💛

"Thank you, Ms. Val and Ms. Hannah, for making our little girl's first ever dance lessons and showcase such a wonderful one. We are all signed up for next year!"

There is truly nothing like a dancer's FIRST year with us those first plié's, the wobbly twirls, the proud little face on showcase day. Ms. Val and Ms. Hannah poured so much love into making this family's first year one to remember, and we could not be more excited to watch this little one grow up Petite Pas! 🩰

Here's to many more years of twirls ahead! We are so excited for our new Academic year in September!
