Academic Activities in McLean, VA

This classical form of dance is derived from french terminology. Ballet focuses on specific feet and body facings both at the barre and in center work. Dancers will lean formalized steps, intricate movement patterns, and a wide variety of ballet vocabulary. At JSDA we believe ballet is the core of all dance and we strongly advise all students take ballet class as part of their growth and development as a dancer. At JSDA we do not focus on one specific ballet technique such as RAD, Cecchetti, or Vaganova- but incorporate all techniques into class.
