Privates
Private sessions are often a great way to work on specific areas of your body, specific steps, techniques and progressions.
We offer a vast number of length options that go from 20 minutes (recommended for level assessments and Absolute Beginner Ballet dancers) to 120 minutes (recommended for rehearsals, audition/photoshoot prep and coaching in general).
You can choose to book a private session for anything and everything your heart desires including but not limited to intro to pointe, body placement, conditioning, PBT and yoga, 4Pointe, contemporary, choreography coaching (both as a performer and a choreographer) and show production amongst others.
Please note: For Private Sessions, all bookings, changes and cancellations must be done 48hrs prior to the class. Late cancellation will result in the loss of the private session and a cancellation fee equal to 20% of the value of the session.
