Ballet Virginia offers other genres of dance to enrich the foundation of classical ballet training. Training in an “elective” offers our dancers opportunities to build coordination, strength, artistry and musicality while exploring new ways of moving. Our Lower and Upper School training includes Modern, Jazz and Character and there are additional electives available.
Electives can be a way for dancers to work on weaknesses, gain confidence and just have fun.
