ABT® NATIONAL TRAINING CURRICULUM
One
of the exciting developments this year is the inclusion of the
ABT® National Training Curriculum for our Primary though Level 3
ballet classes. Artistic Director
Marla Hirokawa and instructors
Brenda Neville and Allison Jay-Baber
successfully completed the ABT Teacher Training Intensive for
Primary to Level 3 and are officially ABT® Certified Teachers.
The ABT curriculum combines high quality artistic training with
the basics of dancer health and child development and it
complements the goals of CBTB’s ballet programs.

"Covenant's care reaches beyond
dance... They go above and beyond what would be typically expected. Words
cannot express the gratitude and affection I feel for Marla and her staff.. The lessons and skills
Hayley has learned will be carried with her not only through school and dance but
through life."
- Cara Raptis, academy parent
