Our Classical Ballet Program is for dancers (ages 12+) with a pre-professional mindset—ready to train with intention, discipline, and long-term vision. Rooted in a curriculum refined over two decades, we focus on developing each dancer fully—mentally, physically, emotionally, and artistically. With high expectations and individualized support, we prioritize sustainable technique and intrinsic motivation. Our dancers don’t burn out—they build momentum, graduating with the resilience, artistry, and strength to thrive in today’s dance world and beyond.

An audition is required for all Ballet Division dancers to train at CRD. Dancers may participate in both the Ballet and Commercial/Competitive Divisions. If accepted into the school after an audition, you would consult with our director to manage both tracks.
*NOTE: The intensive program for dancers under 11 is the Core Training Group C which prepares dancers for future specialization in Ballet or Commercial Tracks.
