Q: Do I have to take ballet?
The answer is
YES! Why? Classical ballet provides the technical foundation for all other dance forms. It is the most demanding, most disciplined of all dance forms; but also the most rewarding. With a solid ballet foundation, classically trained dancers can transfer their skills into jazz, tap, modern dance, or any other dance form or
dance class they might decide to pursue. Accomplishing that solid ballet foundation is crucial to becoming an outstanding dancer in any dance form.
I would encourage dancers to try all forms of dance. Training in all different forms gives a dancer more versatility if they ever decide to pursue a professional dancing career or teaching career.
