Elevated Forms — Dance is designed for dancers of all ages looking for pre-professional training. It consists of in-home or in-studio classes focused on building a strong well-rounded dancer that is ready to enter the commercial or concert professional dance communities. In each session dancers start with Progressing Ballet Technique exercises followed by ballet technique and work in contemporary, jazz, and acrobatic movement. The flow of each class is designed for each student to fit their individual needs and goals. Dancers are able to work towards completing exams with internationally recognized dance organizations such as American Ballet Theatre and Acrobatic Arts. Beyond working on dance technique, students will receive coaching on the various routes for professional dancers (including college and pre-professional training programs), injury prevention (Sugar Foot Therapy), and invaluable mentorship for life and all it brings.

Elevated Forms is proud to include the AMERICAN BALLET THEATRE® National Training Curriculum, a breakthrough 9 level program that combines high quality artistic training with the basics of dancer health and child development. The ABT® National Training Curriculum consists of a comprehensive set of age-appropriate, outcome-based guidelines to provide the highest quality ballet training to dance students of all ages and skill levels. Pre-Primary through Level 5 will be taught by ABT® Certified Teacher, Alexandra Roumanis, who has successfully completed the ABT® Teacher Training Intensive in Pre-Primary through Level 5 of the ABT® National Training Curriculum.

TRAINING OPTIONS

1. WEEKLY TECHNIQUE TRAINING
   Meet weekly or every other week regularly focusing on improving a specific style of technique or your dance technique in general. Great for dancers and movers looking for more focused instruction to achieve more difficult skills including turns, jumps, acrobatics, and pointe in addition to their regular class schedule. This is also great for dancers and families not comfortable going into group classes at the dance studio and want more than online training. This option also works for students needing a more flexible schedule for training because they are looking for supplemental training for other activities (musical theatre, gymnastics, ice skating, and diving).

2. WEEKLY CROSS TRAINING FOR INJURY PREVENTION, STRENGTH + FLEXIBILITY
   Meet weekly or every other week regularly to focus on strength and injury prevention. We will focus on PBT and Sugarfoot Therapy exercises. Great for dancers looking to cross train or who are dealing with injuries. This route is also great for the dancer looking to go on pointe. These sessions will lay the groundwork to build a strong and healthy body that is prepared for their regular class, rehearsal, and performance schedule.

3. ONE WEEK INTENSIVE
   Meet in-person or virtually for an intensive week of regular sessions focused on developing a strong practice for dancers to continue on their own. This is great for dancers looking for training during their off-season and dancers who are great self-starters looking for guidance and material to apply on their own.

4. SINGLE SESSION | MASTER CLASS

   Meet in-person or virtually for a single session. This is for dancers looking to work on one specific skill or issue in a shorter period of time or are interested in the occassional private lesson.

5. IN-STUDIO OR VIRTUAL WORKSHOP
   Bring Elevated Forms to your studio or meet online for a weekend, multi-day, or one day workshop. We will spend time training together and building a home program that is directed towards accomplishing your studio’s goals. You will leave with more knowledge and specific steps to train to become a stronger dancer.

6. PRIVATE GROUP TRAINING
   Do you have a group of friends looking to improve their ballet technique, gain more acro skills, or do some strength and conditioning together? We can set up your own in-studio or virtual private workshop, class, or intensive. We will build skills together, improve with our community of dance friends, and leave with tools and tips to hold each other accountable to continue taking our dance training to the next level.
