Ballet by JM Dance Center We instill the fundamentals necessary for growth, discipline, and self-confidence. Stretching, breathing, and dance movements are performed in every class. We encourage imagination, musicality, improvisation, and graceful movements through dance.
Ballet is one of the most complete exercises for children and adults involving emotional, physical, and psychological benefits. It is highly recommended by physicians to treat pes planus and improve/correct posture. The art of Ballet plays a key component in developing body language, hearing and memory. Additionally, ballet helps improve socialization skills by building personal confidence and therefore reducing stress levels and diminishing anxiety
