Louisville Ballet offers dynamic virtual programming for schools and community partners. As children are naturally kinesthetic learners, movement and dance is an excellent way of offering differentiated instruction to your students. The curriculum for all of our virtual programs is based on the National Core Arts Standards in Dance and provide a high quality arts education for students and teachers.
