What can ballet do for you? "Ballet helps keep your mind sharp, as you quickly memorize combinations and then move using them," said Judy Moynihan, a long-term adult ballet student at the school.
New students or guests must pre-register before attending a class. To register or for more information, call the school's office at 781-631-6262. For a class schedule, visit the school online.
