Night Before Christmas Performance
We are excited to provide performance opportunities for ALL our fully enrolled students age 5+! Performances require a greater time commitment: MANDATORY rehearsals OUTSIDE OF CLASS including an in-studio run-through and on-stage spacing and dress rehearsal. Solid attendance, punctuality, and proactive parental assistance are REQUIRED of cast members. (Please make careful note of the performance agreement on the website when enrolling in this class. If you fail to meet your commitments, no refund will be offered.) This year, Ballet Aligned is hoping to provide most of the performance leos. Fees will cover your participation, unlimited portrait and on-stage images of the production, and a video link of the performance. If you have any additional questions, please text them to Ballet Aligned at 435.633.1225.

Foundations Augmented
This class on Fridays at 3pm is designed to give our fully enrolled students in the Foundations and Intermediate/Advanced levels (with Foundations Prep by invite) the opportunity to develop every skill relevant to a career in or adjacent to professional dancing. We'll develop technique, work on cross-training and conditioning, gain experience in other forms of dance, and enjoy industry professionals as guest instructors. A 1.5 hr class each Friday is guaranteed, which may be augmented to 2 hours (at no additional cost) to accommodate guest schedules. This class MAY be attended as a series of non-consecutive workshops (which will be open to non-Ballet Aligned dancers), but workshop pricing will be higher and space in class is offered to students enrolled in this class first. (A workshop schedule is TBA and will be emailed to enrollees in this class and posted on the events page of BalletAligned.com.)
