Brighton Ballet In Brooklyn - Free Boys Classes
For the boys in ballet....
I heard from Brighton Ballet today so I checked them out on line. They offer free unlimited boys classes!
From their website: http://www.brightonballet.org/Boys_Dance.htm
"Classes include:
* Ballet - Develop your ballet technique, strengthen and point your feet, improve your balance and coordination.
* Character Dance - Learn how to dance character dance combine strong dance technique with acting skills.
* Ballroom & Latin Dance - Partnering dance teaches students grace, coordination, self-discipline and self-confidence as they explore dances like salsa, tango, rumba and more as well as social skill development.
* Hip-Hop - Get ready to get up and move. Learn all of the latest moves utilizing lots of dance technique.
* Break dance - Taking break-dance is a great way to improve your fitness levels. This dance class will leave you with a feeling of exhilaration resulting from a great workout.
Benefits of the boys program include:
- An understanding of how the arts shape the diverse cultures in their society
- Actively engaging in and becoming more knowledgeable about the arts
- Enhanced motivation and greater self-confidence
- Improved school attendance and reduced drop-out rate
- Decreased likelihood of substance abuse
- Exposure to a variety of careers related to the arts
- Fewer behavioral problems in school
- Better social skills (more cooperative attitude with adults and peers)"
I understand that this is annoying to girls in ballet... I honestly do. I was one, and I did not have unlimited free classes. But, if you want partners, this is a price we pay for social bias and ignorance. Keep your attention on YOUR progress, your visions, and your brilliance.
