From the delicate beauty of the Sugar Plum Fairy to the fiery passion of the Black Swan, dancers will study and embody the nuances of character, style, and expression inherent in each variation. Our instructors will provide individualized coaching to help dancers unlock their artistic potential and master the storytelling elements of classical ballet variations.
