Level 3: A–C

Levels 3A–C mark the beginning of formal ballet training. Students follow a Vaganova-based curriculum that develops a strong technical foundation while introducing a broader range of styles as they progress through the program.

Three sublevels offer different weekly schedules to accommodate each student’s interests and other after-school activities. To advance to Level 4 and begin pointe, students must complete Level 3C (four classes per week) and demonstrate the strength, ability, and maturity required, with teacher approval.

Level 3A: Twice Weekly
Ages 7–8
Building on the foundation developed in Levels 1 and 2, students begin more structured ballet training, with increased mat and center work designed to develop coordination, musicality, and discipline while maintaining the joy and expression of dance.

Level 3B: Three Times Weekly
Ages 8–9
Students are introduced to barre work, beginning with exercises facing the barre. Center work expands to develop coordination, musicality, and strength, laying the foundation for more advanced ballet technique.

Level 3C: Four Times Weekly
Ages 9–11
Students progress from barre work facing the barre to working with one hand on the barre, while center exercises become more dynamic and develop coordination through movement. Pre-pointe work is introduced, with pointe beginning when each student demonstrates the appropriate strength, muscle development, and maturity.

Level 3 students have the opportunity to perform in Fall Classic, The Nutcracker, and Spring Concert.
