2024–25 Season

Pre-Ballet Division Enrollment and Schedules

Families enroll their dancer in a class corresponding with their dancer’s age:

  • Sessional We Dance Together (Ages 2.5, 3, 4 with Guardian): Dancers must meet the minimum age by the first class of the Session.

  • Seasonal Creative Movement (Ages 3, 4) and Pre-Ballet (Ages 5, 6): Dancers must meet the minimum age requirement by September 1, 2024 regardless of enrollment date. Seasonal classes culminate in an optional Pre-Ballet Division Showcase. Tuition is prorated for a late start.

  • Dancers who are six years old by September 1, 2024 may also be eligible for Youth Division Introduction to Level 1 enrollment. For information and guidance on Youth Division placement, please contact BBT School Manager Jenna Marie: jennam@berkeleyballet.org

Uniforms by class type:

  • We Dance Together (Ages 2.5, 3, 4 with Guardian) and Creative Movement (Ages 3, 4):

    • Uniform: We Dance Together and Creative Movement classes do not require a uniform. Dancers wear clothing that allows for freedom of movement; dancers may wear canvas or leather ballet slippers or leave their feet bare with no socks. BBT requests that dancers do not wear jewelry, specifically necklaces or bracelets that can cause distraction or get tangled, or ornamental items such as tiaras or crowns that can hinder movement and distract; small earrings are okay.

  • Pre-Ballet (Ages 5, 6):
