Adagio Ballet’s curriculum is designed to provide young dancers with a joyful transition from the world of magical fairy-tale dances to the fine art of classical ballet. With this intention, we have created a unique ballet curriculum which is based on the Vaganova method of ballet and uses the natural physical, mental, and social development of students as a guide for introducing the art of dance.



As students grow, they naturally begin to dance as a form of imaginative expression. Our program captures this enthusiasm and incorporates it into a curriculum designed specifically for young students. As they mature and develop physical strength, we transition our students to a more serious study of ballet technique that prepares them to be confident and technically proficient dancers and artists. Our advanced dance students have years of experience as performers and are well-equipped to continue their study at the collegiate and professional levels. 



We strive to teach our students in a way that engages their minds, bodies, and spirits by incorporating different teaching methods in our classes – such as educational, musical, and rhythmical games, improvisation, peer interaction, and artistic interpretation of literature. Among the great strengths of Adagio Ballet’s program is the number of performance opportunities (including parent demonstration days and recitals) available to our students, which develop confidence and poise as our dancers learn to perform in front of an audience.
