"The cost of cheap dance training can be made up for in medical bills. It pays to get your child proper dance training."

Don't let improper training damage your young dancer's body or dreams. Enroll in developmentally appropriate classes at Ballet Studio E.

Did You Know?

 

Students should not be taught to stand in 1st position (feet in a 'v' shape) until the age of eight. Yet nearly all dance teachers will introduce this position at age three or four!

Girls should not be taught 5th position until the age of 13 to ensure proper development of the pelvis. Most dance schools teach this position to girls by the age of 8!

If you don't know which dance steps could harm your child, it's important to send them to a dance school that does.Otherwise, your little dancer is being put at serious physical risk.

Ballet Studio E is the only dance school in Southeastern Wisconsin that refuses to teach  steps until children's bodies are ready for them, and makes these determinations regarding the use of turn out, ballet steps, and pointe work based upon the advice of medical professionals specializing in dance. Thus making the distinction between dance training, and safe dance training.

It does matter where your child takes dance.

There is no governing body regulating the safety of ballet training or the expertise of dance teachers.

Ballet Studio E is the only dance school in southeastern Wisconsin to have a developmentally appropriate and medically sound dance curriculum approved by medical professionals.

Even a short period of improper training at the age of four can be the reason for late-onset problems, such as bad knees and arthritic hips by the age of 16.

Damage to a young child's body from improper dance training often doesn't cause pain, because the damage is done to still soft tissue. The pain often isn't present until years later,when bones and muscles mature.

There is a connection between poor dance training before the age of 12, and physical problems in the teen and young adult.
