Join Us for Our 6-Week Summer Sessions

At Ballare Teatro Performing Arts Center, we have great fun in the studio in the summer! If you are new to the studio, our short 6-week session is the perfect time to see if you like what is going on here without committing to a full year of dance. For our current dancers, summer is the time to continue improving your technique without the pressure of a performance.


We have our weekly evening classes for creative dancers (age 3-4), Fundamental A and B (age 5-6), and Level IA and IB (ages 7-9).   Summer 2026 dates are June 22-July 30, 2026. Registration for Summer 2026 will open February 8.

Ballare is a place where I feel at home thanks to the inviting atmosphere, non-competitive classes and performance opportunities, and sense of community among the dancers, family, and staff. I am so lucky to have the Ballare community in my life, and I cannot recommend this studio enough to dancers (and aspiring dancers) of all ages.
