Ballet is a traditional form of performance and concert dance that is usually performed to the accompaniment of classical music. Of all the styles of dance offered at Courthouse School of Ballet, ballet is perhaps the most challenging. Students require a lot of training and a certain amount of natural talent in order to become successful ballet dancers. By the same token, the results are all the more rewarding.

Our ballet instructor and Courthouse School of Ballet founder has earned critical acclaim as a professional contemporary dancer in the past. Today, Karin remains passionate about ballet and seeks to share that knowledge with others who are eager to learn. We offer courses for beginner, intermediate and advanced ballet dancers.
