AGES 9 TO 17
Details, September 2026 to January 2027
ABOUT
We offer classes for select performers who may benefit from additional training before being ready for our Senior and Junior groups, or those who are looking for a more recreational opportunity. The classes are smaller than the Senior and Junior groups, which allows for more personal attention. There are three class levels – Teen, Intermediate, and Youth.
The classes have their own concert designed to help the performers gain more confidence and experience in a lower pressure setting.
