Admission
Classical ballet comprises about forty steps, but also - and this is more important - a technique: in other words, a set of exercises intended to enable the dancer to gain mastery of his whole body, on a par with that of the pianist or organist over his fingers and feet.

Please call Director Carole Alexis at 646-753-0457 to schedule an audition. The results of the audition will be e-mailed to you - along with detailed registration instructions, if your child is accepted.
As part of the auditioning process, all prospective students are evaluated by the Director and faculty and assigned to the appropriate level. The age of a student may thus differ from that of other students in the same class. Although the school makes a concerted effort to keep the age ranges as narrow as possible, it is important that students be placed into the class that is most suitable to their level of ability and development so as to foster the greatest progress, artistic and technical achievement.
Once your child has been accepted, please complete and submit your Registration Form along with your payment, read the Handbook for Parents and Students and sign and submit its signature page.
