Quote from Miss Janine to start your Tuesday off on the right (pointed) foot...:)

"It has long since come to my attention that people of accomplishment rarley sat back and let things happens to them.  They went out and happened to things."

Summer and Fall Registration!

Have you completed your registration for summer yet? We have many summer sessions for different levels of ballet and contemporary, check out our post below for the schedule. We have also added a Ballet 2-3 class not on the schedule below, e-mail us for that info! For our upper levels, our intensives will be taught by Emily Grizzell, former dancer with Royal Winnipeg Ballet, as well as Peggy Goodness and Sarah Glesk. Also, fall pre-registration has been completed for those remaining in the same class, and on Registration Day, June 6 beginning at noon, we will register those dancers wishing to move into a new class! Registration opens at noon, and though we don't anticipate the need for a 5:30 a.m. line up, as we have in the past, we still expect many classes to fill on that day. Please e-mail (inlandnwballet@aol.com), call (467-0765), or send us a Facebook message to get more info about summer or fall classes! We welcome dancers ages 3 and up, both current and brand new students, to our studio...:)

Summer Intensives for our upper levels!

Summer Fun! Upper level intensives for both levels 5 & 6, taught by Peggy Goodner, Emily Grizzell, & Sarah Glesk, register by June 20th to ensure a spot! ***Remember that B5s are required to study a minimum of 16 summer dance hours, and B6s are required to study a minimum of 20 summer dance hours. Those hours may take place at INB or at another summer classical ballet intensive. Registration for fall will not be processed until summer hours are noted on your registration form. To save you time doing the math, one week long workshop is enough for B5s, though the summer pointe class is recommended. B6s will need more than one week, so may enroll in either both workshops, just one along with the summer pointe class, or the required hours at another classical ballet intensive.
