ABOUT PARIS BALLET & DANCE

When selecting a dance school, it is important to consider the quality of training, the experience of the teachers, and the atmosphere of the school.

Their vast experience and knowledge is passed directly along to students of Paris Ballet and Dance -- class by class -- on a daily basis. Students also have opportunities to be taught by phenomenal guest teachers, and to take Master Classes with some of the most renowned dance educators in the world.

With strong ballet-based training, Paris Ballet and Dance instills a sound sense of professionalism, commitment, dedication and a keen work ethic. Classical ballet training and vocabulary is the base for most dance forms. Ballet dancers excel in all other dance forms because of the solid ballet technique they have been taught.
