Classes
Abigail School of Dance offers dance classes ballet for youth and our Abigail Moves series.
Dance classes are available for students ages 5 to adults. Proper dance placement is important; therefore, please select a class that is best suited for your skill level.​
For example, if this is your first time dancing, you should select Pre-Prima Ballet. You should have at least two full years of training for Beginning Ballet 1. Also, if you have had some dance training, then modern or jazz would be an appropriate class to select.
