Ballet Academy Lincoln Park was founded in 1998 and offers dance classes for kids that are unique, fun, and taught by caring, energetic, and professional teachers. Our goal is to provide students with unmatched excellence, regardless of age or ability. We offer classes for all ages and abilities from our "Small Steps", through the Vaganova dance curriculum to adult/teenage classes. This program develops confidence, coordination, and posture. It also improves memory and concentration. The dancers will feel better about themselves and achieve more as they grow. Ballet Academy Lincoln Park creates an environment that fosters the natural creativity and potential in a child. This includes everything from fostering an interest in dance to developing professional skills. Ballet lessons and dance performances help develop important character traits in children: discipline, hard work, a desire for perfection, teamwork, responsibility, and accountability.
