Pilates

The Pilates program at North Ballet Academy is an essential supplement to classical ballet training, and also is an excellent area of fitness for just about anyone.

Pilates focuses on the core postural muscles which help keep the body balanced and which are essential to providing support for the spine. In particular, Pilates exercises teach awareness of breath and alignment of the spine, and aim to strengthen the deep torso muscles.

Soli Deo Gloria

Soli Deo Gloria is a new recreational, faith and PERFORMANCE BASED class offered at North Ballet Academy. This class will focus on learning choreography which is based on the Lester Horton Modern Dance Technique. Once choreography is mastered, faith-based pieces will be performed within the community at various community venues, including churches, talent shows, dance performances, and more.  The Lester Horton technique was created to compliment all body types, which enables students from all backgrounds of dance– from novice to intermediate to advanced– to participate.  The instructor will artfully combine Modern Dance movement with inspirational contemporary Christian music.  This year's choreography is set to two pieces by Chris Tomlin.  Please call for more information.

Dancing Around His Throne

It is our heart as licensed dance minister’s to raise up children to learn to worship and minister effectively in the way that God intended us to.  To offer our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God,this is the true and proper worship according to Romans 12:1.  Our class will consist of ballet to teach technique and proper form as well as incorporating prayer and teaching Biblical pricipals in worship and dance. It is our desire that these children not just learn to dance to Christian music but to learn the true heart of God regarding dance ministry.
