Brochure

The Edmonton School of Ballet offers a variety of classes for adult dancers.  These include Jazz, Tap, Modern and Beginner Ballet 1 and 2 and Intermediate Ballet 1, 2, and 3.  Adult classes run weekly from September through June following the same calendar as for the younger students.  Adults in these classes learn technique, steps, strengthening, stretching, and choreography.  Dancers in the adult classes have the option of the exciting goal of performing at one of school performances and at the Alberta Dance Festival.  Although registration typically starts each year in September, enrolment is taken all year round, space permitting.  Click here for our current schedule.  The new schedule for September is typically available at the end of May or beginning of June each season.

There are many reasons why people choose to take adult dance classes at the Edmonton School of Ballet.  Many adults take up dance to learn more about what their own children are studying and enjoying.  Others are interested in re-visiting a dream of their youth.  Still others are looking for a new form of fitness that challenges not just their body, but their intellect as well.  We also see dancers who danced in their teens and are hoping to continue to take classes while working or studying and want to be in a class with other adults instead of teens.

Adult classes are also offered at the Edmonton School of Ballet Summer Dance Intensive (2 weeks in August).  Please contact the office for exact times of the classes.
