A closed Sunday 10 – 11:30 am basic class focusing on fundamentals and basic technique. We will master inside and outsdie turns, basic petite allegro, adagio, and waltz. For those who have graduated from our ALIGN 2 workshop or dances at a basic technical level.  Instructed by Align founder Michael Cornell.

TESTIMONIALS

I have Michael as my ballet instructor and he has done an amazing job. He is very patient and he pushes me to become a better dancer. His class is the right level of difficulty. I enjoy all his classes.
Michael is kind, inclusive, positive and makes learning ballet as a person close to 60 years old feel doable and fun!
Michael is very kind, patient and passionate about dance which I love. He gives great corrections, makes class fun and forms his classes to the specific students and their capabilities. Thank you, Michael!! You're the best!
An amazing teacher with a great sense of humor. Made me feel welcomed and comfortable taking ballet for the first time. I cant wait to continue with him as my teacher!!! If you're thinking about...DO IT!!!
Michael is absolutely amazing and I'm honored to have him as my instructor. I'm incredibly excited to see what he is going to teach in Align 2. He inspires us and pushes us to be the best we can. I appreciate his corrections and attentiveness. One million percent recommend!!
Good overall experience. He’s flexible with barre and center routines so we both progress to keep things interesting and backtrack when needed to focus on form.
I appreciate Michael’s attention to detail balanced with an understanding that many of us are beginners. He gives great corrections and words of encouragement (and sarcasm which I love). My technique has definitely improved since taking his class!
Michael is wonderful—patient, empathetic, generous with his time and knowledge, and always encouraging. He creates an environment where I feel free to challenge myself, make mistakes, and grow as a dancer. I enjoy every class and always leave the studio feeling better than when I walked in. Thank you for being such a great teacher!
