The School of Classical Ballet and Western Dance specializes in training students who wish to learn ballet in its authenticity, making no compromise in the discipline that has to be inculcated in both the professional and the amateur student. This direction is also implemented in the training given for the other dance forms.

Ballet is a perfect Art. It requires tremendous discipline, focus, dedication, and love for the subject. The body has to be trained and chiseled into a beautiful instrument which comes across with grace, elegance, and artistry.

The benefits of learning ballet are many; it is a passport to coping with any other form of dance. Ballet as a performing art is for the selected few (due to its anatomical demands),but its training can bring professionalism to the student in a much broader sense. Good posture, elegance, and poise are evident in a student of ballet.
