Ballet Etc. has provided dance education to the Traverse City region since 1996. We offer classes in Ballet, Modern, Jazz, Tap, Irish and Pre-School Dance for ages 3 through adult. Ballet Etc. is a competition-free dance studio. That is, we do not promote sports-like competitions nor do we expect parents to shell out hundreds of dollars for expensive costumes, entrance fees and costly travel and hotel expenses.
Our mission is to provide dance education that focuses on technique and performance skills built on a solid foundation. Costumes for our annual spring performance are simple accessories added to the student's required class attire. No costumes need to be purchased. The emphasis is to present a program that demonstrates the technical and artistic progress of our students, who relish a true feeling of accomplishment.
