Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT) is an innovative body-conditioning and strengthening program that has been designed to enhance students’ technique by focussing on training the muscle memory required in each exercise in all forms of dance. With the use of an exercise ball, the students gain a great sense of posture and weight-placement whilst feeling each correct muscle group working throughout each exercise, which then stays with them when whilst performing in dance or their chosen field of sport
PBT focuses on core strength, weight placement and alignment of the body with a gradual approach of carefully designed exercises and repetitions of these exercises that trigger their muscle memory.
We offer all kinds of awesome summer camps. In 2022 we held an Acro intensive, a Disney/Pixar camp, a Circus Camp, a Broadway Bound camp, and a Popstars camp. We also had classes for pre-ballet and little boys.
