Classes are divided by level based on age and teacher recommendations. Proper training and alignment for a dancer cannot be achieved in only attending one class per week, therefore all students from Grade 1 and up are required to participate in at least 2 ballet classes weekly.

The Oakville School of Dance provides a friendly, nurturing atmosphere where each child's creative talent is exposed and incorporated into the art of classical ballet. The students are eager to learn and take great pride with their accomplishments. Whether a student wishes to work toward a career in dance, or enjoys dancing as an extra-curricular activity, the young dancer's changing body becomes a finely tuned instrument which deserves only the finest and most proper instruction. Only a truly experienced, professional teacher can guide a young dancer through the gradual and careful progress of their training. Our faculty concentrates on developing long lean lines, a strong technical foundation, freedom of movement, and the execution of movements with style and grace.

We welcome enthusiastic students who enjoy the benefits from the traditions of a fine training in a nurturing environment.

Baby Ballet, Pre-Ballet, Pre- Primary and Primary classes
These classes are specifically designed to develop the motor skills of the 3 to 6 year old, and to prepare them for the traditional class by instilling poise, etiquette, confidence and a love for the art of dance. Emphasis on the lower levels concentrates on the pleasure of movement and musicality with the development of technique, artistry, and self- discipline evolving throughout the levels. For Pre-Primary and Primary levels, the Royal Academy of Dance curriculum is followed.
