In-person

Intermediate to Advanced Ballet Classes

Wed Nov 20, 2024 9:48 p.m.—9:48 p.m.

Join us every Saturday from 4:30pm-6pm for Free Ballet Classes for all Yale students, taught by Marc Spielberger. Classes will be held at the Broadway Rehearsal Lofts at 294 Elm Street, on the 3rd floor.

Marc's outlook for this class is clean and simple technique that is suitable for both intermediate and advanced students. Beginners are welcome to try a barre.

We will try to stress musicality, focus and clean lines, with the center of the work on speed and movement quality.
