    Description
    This course develops beginning level concepts and principles of classical ballet technique with an emphasis on body alignment/placement. The class focuses on building consistency in the fundamental concepts of ballet technique and musicality, progressing from barre to center work at the beginning level. Movement vocabulary and phrases further develop strength, coordination, and flexibility. This course is a continuation of Dance 31A, preparing for Dance 32A. Attendance of dance productions for which students must purchase tickets (see smc.edu/dance) is required along with written assignments.
