The syllabus in the Children's Division has been specifically created for the youngest students at the Academy. The creativity, artistic imagina-tion, education and experience of our profes-sional staff have produced an exciting program that lays a strong foundation for entrance into the Lower Division of the Academy.
The three levels in our Children's Division are based on age†:
- Pre-Ballet 1 (ages 3-4)
- Pre-Ballet 2 (age 5)
- Pre-Ballet 3 (age 6)
- † Ages for pre-ballet classes are parameters by which we place the children. The teacher ultimately decides which class is best for each child. Children may be moved to a different class if it is deemed in the child's best interest.
