COVID-19 RESPONSE
Azesta Ballet is very mindful of the current Covid-19 Health crisis. We are dedicated to following the most stringent guidelines from the Royal Academy of Dance, The Fraser Health Authority, BC's Provincial Health Officer and WorksafeBC in order to keep all our dancers and the general public safe.

Why Ballet?
Ballet is a classical art form that teaches students the beauty of dance and movements. At AzestA, students develop the balance, poise, flexibility, strength and discipline required not just for dance but for everyday healthy living. Students studying other dance styles are encouraged to take ballet in conjunction with their chosen dance discipline to help develop a strong overall technique.
AzestA School of Ballet
AzestA Ballet, led by Elizabeth Lisa, is a Dance School located in Abbotsford that promotes confidence, dicipline, technique, quality and knowledge of dance at an elite level. We offer classes for dancers of all ages and levels, from ages three to adult. We are an educational ballet school based on the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) syllabus. We offer classical and contemporary ballet classes. There are also competitive programs available.
RAD Registered Ballet Teacher
By choosing an RAD Registered Teacher you are making sure you are choosing a well qualified and professional Ballet Teacher. This also ensures your ballet dancer follows an internationally recognized syllabus of dance which is designed to motivate and encourage students of all ages and levels of abilities and also can allow them to participate in RAD Exams if desired. Speak to your teacher for more information.

Benefits of Dance
Young or young at heart, female or male, we can all benefit from a healthy lifestyle and positive environment.
Here are some of the benefits of dance...
Body Awareness
Dance lessons build strong balance, spatial and kinesthetic awareness.
Balance
Dance stabilizes muscles in the legs, ankles, and the abdominal core.
Flexibility
Dancers strive to achieve a full range of motion for all of the major muscle groups.
Strength
Dancers build strength safely in a low-impact way, by forcing the muscles to resist against the dancer's own body weight.
Endurance
Dance builds the ability of the muscles to work hard for increasingly longer periods of time without fatigue.
Make Friends
Make friends, challenge and support each other, and build overall social skills.
