Children’s ballet classes this winter at the Joseph Trapasso Community House

New Haven Ballet is pleased to announce a new partnership with the Town of Branford Parks and Recreation Department to bring children’s ballet classes to the Joseph Trapasso Community House this winter and spring.

The program offers classes for children ages 4–6 and students in grades 1–2. Through music, movement, and imaginative play, young dancers are introduced to the fundamentals of classical ballet in a supportive and welcoming environment.

Classes are designed to build coordination, confidence, and musicality while fostering creativity and a love of movement. No prior dance experience is required.

Students enrolled in the program will also have the opportunity to participate in New Haven Ballet’s spring performance at the historic Shubert Theatre in downtown New Haven, offering a unique and inspiring performance experience for young dancers.

Classes begin January 20, with sessions continuing through the spring. Registration is available through the Branford Parks and Recreation Department. Click Here for information.

Dear New Haven Ballet Families,

I hope you enjoyed a fantastic summer and are ready to begin the fall. All of us at New Haven Ballet are excited to welcome new and returning students to the studio.

This is an exciting time to be part of New Haven Ballet and I feel privileged to be part of this community. Our first summer residency at Choate was incredible and I look forward to sharing news about expanding the program next summer.

You may see some new faces as Heidi Yu returns to the faculty to teach Levels 2, 3 and 4, and we welcome Julien Kanor who will be working with Mr. Tim and students in the Children’s Division.

During the month of September, I encourage students in Levels 3-8 to try something new by attending one or more of the nine weekly enrichment classes for FREE. Enrichment classes support and maximize a student’s progress and potential. Students in levels 3-8 should participate in at least one weekly conditioning class. Broadway and Contemporary dance classes build physical strength, flexibility, musicality, and broaden a dancer’s overall technical skills and artistry.

Finally, I understand many of us are focused on The Nutcracker. Auditions will be held September 23-24 and are open to students enrolled at New Haven Ballet in Creative Ballet 1 through Level 8. For those who have questions about the process I invite you to attend a meeting on Saturday, September 9.

If you have a general question please do not hesitate to ask Ruth Barker at Tel. 203-782-9038 or email: administrator@newhavenballet.org. If you have questions about billing please reach out to Lucy Weady at businessmanager@newhavenballet.org.

As the Artistic Director I will continue to dedicate myself to this organization, and feel confident that together we will make great things happen at New Haven Ballet!

Yours sincerely,

Lisa Kim Sanborn
