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.

This October, give your child the joy of dance! Children ages 3–8 can join our Intro to Ballet classes for just $75.

At New Haven Ballet, we believe a child’s first ballet experience should be joyful and nurturing. In our bright, spacious studios, little dancers explore movement, music, and creativity under the guidance of caring, expert instructors.

Our gentle syllabus is specially designed for young children—building coordination, imagination, and musicality—while laying the foundation for future training.

This special offer is only available October 1–31, 2025. Don’t miss it. For information contact administrator@newhavenballet.org or 203-782-9038.
