Ballet
A classical dance form, characterized by grace, precision of movement, elaborate steps and poses; a theatrical presentation of dancing to a musical accompaniment, usually with costumes and scenes, conveying a story or theme. Body movements are usually choreographed to classical music.
Danza Dance Academy’s ballet curriculum is mostly the Russian method of Vaganova and Balanchine. These methods originated in Russia and have very expressive upper body work accompanied with extensive lower body strengthening. The Russian method is known to be more extreme with higher arabesques and longer body lines. This is also the chosen method for the Colorado Ballet.
