This year’s summer plans look a little differently than usual. While we are excited about the direction we are taking during the month of June we are still hopeful we will offer classes at our location in July and August.
Session II: July 8 to August 13
For the first week of classes, starting on Wednesday July 8, we will host two online classes on Wednesday (July 8) and Thursday (July 9). Both of these classes will be live on Zoom. Once you register you will receive the links to these classes.
Weekly Schedule:
Monday: Guest Teacher Day! We will rotate special guest teachers, including former students Sara Radka and Sterling Waterfield, and Katie Labadie and Kellis Oldenburg of Marigny Opera Ballet.
Tuesday: Ballet with Gretchen Erickson of Marigny Opera Ballet
Wednesday: Ballet with Aaron Wiggins of Marigny Opera Ballet
Thursday: Ballet with Jarina
Also note, live classes will also be available online! We will have a zoom link and we will send them to you every Sunday, regardless of whether or not you intend on attending the live classes. We do this so that you are able to attend even if you have safety concern regarding your exposure or anothers’, or if the number of new covid-19 cases in Orleans Parish rises to an unsafe level.
