Private Lessons at Reach For The Barres

Private lessons create amazing opportunities for our students to gain valuable one-on-one time with a skilled RFTB instructor.
Besides the obvious reason for having a private lesson (choreographing solos, duets and trios to perform in the annual recital),
the benefits of individual attention to dance instruction are endless. From increasing technical development and dancer confidence
the beauty of private lessons is that they are focused on one individual, and one individual only.

In addition to those dancers with the focus of end of the year performances,
private lessons are also a great opportunity to set goals and make action plans with more serious students.

Building technique and working on specific idiosyncrasies is a major plus when working with a dancer privately.
Technique focused lessons are a great fit for strong dancers who desire more of a challenge and those who need more practice alike.

Whether your dancer is specifically focused on an opportunity to have their own choreographed solo, duet or trio,
or opportunity to focus on strengthening their technique seasonal availability is limited.

If this sounds like your dancer, we would encourage anyone interested to contact us as soon as possible.
