About Intermediate/Advanced Ballet
Linda Celeste Sims’s advanced and intermediate-level classes will teach technical exercises to prepare dancers to meet the demands of today’s choreography while refining their technique. Her training system is designed to involve the entire body in each movement with equal attention to torso, legs, and feet. Focus will also be placed on musicality, quality of movement, and individual artistry. Intermediate/Advanced classes are currently available for a limited time through May 29, 2024.
It is recommended to wear ballet shoes or socks along with form-fitting clothing like a leotard or tank top that allows the instructor to view body alignment
