Classes & education

Please note that your dancer needs to dance on a safe surface for all ages. Grass or a forgiving floor such as a second floor or sub-floor. NOT CEMENT or hard foundation. Reach out to me at anytime if needed.

Important information


​Student class placement and enrollment are very important to the dancers training and overall understanding of their curriculum. Dancers must addend all required classes and be EARLY to classes. Missing warm up is dangerous for the dancer, a huge distraction to the other students and disrespectful to myself. Please call/text when dancer is ill or out of town. Make up classes are given when possible. The attendance effects the entire class and the individual dancer’s curriculum. Dancers must not miss more than two classes a month to ensure their enrollment.

The traditional ballet dress uniform and professional presence of each dancer is part of the ballet education. I am trying to improve on my individual communication to you directly regarding your dancer’s dress uniform and presence. Many dancers come from school and daycare and I do not see parents at class. I have made a short quick form to notify you if your dancer needs your assistance on any of the below items prior to their next class. Thank you for providing them the appropriate attire and the time to prepare them to be successful for class. Dancers always dance their best when they feel the best!! The form will have our CLEAN uniform items listed as well as an area to notify you if they need assistance with neat, secured bun, bangs in face, clean face, hands, and Nails, as well as if hygiene support such as Deodorant/anti-perspirant needed. Parents our young girls grow up quickly and may need some assistance. Nobody wants to be known as the smelly one in class. This is important to prevent insecurities in classes. 

​Ballet dancers should not wear panties under tights with the uniform. The bunch and hang out while they move. This has become a huge issue and distraction in classes. See me if you have questions or concerns. Dance sweaters also should be fitted tightly to be fitted correctly. Parents of young girls adjusting to becoming a woman with hygiene, please come see me for tips and tricks for class comfort and practicality. 

Please read our website and emails to gather information. Join our Facebook page as well. I send out general posts, pictures, and Texts as reminders or for emergencies. I will now be turning off my phone religiously on evenings and weekends to be able to be with my children and family. I will return emails and calls on business days. Please understand that if you text me on business days that I maybe in classes as well. My schedule is posted on website if needed.

Pre- recorded Ballet classes Ballet 1- 4

These dancers should be stretching and conditioning daily. Go to our Youtube  page ( Pivotal Dance company) . Go to playlists for class and to videos both general and specific I filmed. Follow details carefully to avoid using incorrect muscles. All dancers should continue to do thero-band and eleves for strength. 

​Classes are offered for all ages now. Starting with general classes and then becoming more specific to ages and levels. Art, dance history, vocabulary and more also to come!
