Attendance at weekly ballet & turns classes is a requirement for female troupe members.  You know ballet is the root of all dance and turns gives a dancer the opportunity to work on the technique of turning and leaping.  If you are not able to attend your ballet or turns class, you should attend a class on a lower not higher level.  If you attend a lower class level, notify the instructor so that she can give you something more difficult to work on during class.  Boys are not required to attend ballet and turns.   If you are unhappy with this policy or some other matter, please schedule a conference with Lisa.  Please refrain from griping at the front desk.
