Student Division

STUDENT DIVISION (Ages 7–12 years)

_RNW1774

Our Student Division is for dancers ages 7 years by August 1, 2023, and up who wish to continue their ballet training. Our Student Division classes focus on technique, repertoire, and varied dance disciplines. We place students in the Student Division based on the class that will best suit their continued development as a dancer. Dancers who wish to join this division must take a placement class for our faculty to assess the best option for them.

*New students to our student division must take a placement class before enrolling. Please email Cyndi Halter at cyndihalter@cantonballet.com to schedule class.
