ADULT OPEN DIVISION
Ages 14 to Adult
The 2025/2026 schedule starts August 4th. Before August 4th please refer to the summer schedule.
Class Descriptions
BRT’s Open Program ballet classes are intended for indivduals who enjoy dance movement and appreciate the demands of ballet technique. These classes continue year-round and are available on a drop-in basis.
Adult Ballet I is structured as a high beginning-intermediate level and designed to incorporate those who have some knowledge of ballet, those who have had dance as a child and wish to begin again, and the first time dancers who have graduated from the Absolute Beginning Ballet program (see the below for details on this program).
Adult Ballet II classes are for students who are comfortable with the ballet curriculum and can move easily through the barre and center.

BRT Home Studio Recommendations
Please make sure your Zoom username is your real name (student or parent) and not a generic name i.e. “iPad 2”. This is for attendance and security purposes.
Internet Speed
Run an internet speed test in the room you plan to use as your at-home studio. You can do this HERE. If speeds are slow, Zoom will freeze, and dancers may have difficulty fully participating in class. Wifi extenders can be purchased to help remedy this issue.
Adult Open Division Dress for Ballet Classes
- Our instructors need to see student’s body lines in order to make corrections and ensure that everyone is dancing safely. Leotards, tights, and skirts are suggested, but are not mandatory. Tighter-fitting yoga clothes are also options. Gentlemen, dance belts must be worn.
- Proper flat ballet slippers must be worn in the Adult Ballet Classes.
- As a courtesy to BRT students and instructors, please use deodorant.
Absolute Beginner Ballet
BRT offers eight-week sessions of Absolute Beginner Ballet classes that provide interested adults with a fun and informative introduction to proper technique. This program is developed for beginning adult dancers with no previous experience or the student who wants to refine their technique at a basic level and focuses on the basic movements and foundations of ballet technique. If you have never studied ballet but always wanted to, this is the class for you.
Once a week on Tuesdays or Thursdays 6:30-7:30pm, Ms. Sarah Morris guides dancers through the fundamentals of ballet, $150 for 8 Weeks. Reservation is required 1 week prior to the start of each session.
