North Reading School of Ballet

Get ready to move, groove, and challenge yourself at North Reading School of Ballet’s Hip Hop + Acro Pop-Up Class on Friday, October 30!
NRSB invites dancers ages 6 and up to join faculty member Meg Sullivan for a high-energy workshop combining two exciting dance styles into one fun-filled class! Dancers will explore the rhythm, musicality, and dynamic movements of hip hop while developing strength, flexibility, balance, and coordination through acro exercises.
Whether you're looking to try something new or build upon your existing skills, this workshop is a great opportunity to explore both styles! No prior experience in hip hop or acro is necessary, although some previous dance experience is recommended. This class is open to both current NRSB students and dancers from the surrounding community.
This class is part of NRSB’s Dance Workshop Series, which offers special opportunities throughout the year to explore new dance styles, learn from experienced faculty and guest artists, and expand students’ training and knowledge beyond the traditional classroom.

Today, she teaches dancers of all ages and specializes in a variety of styles, including tap, acro, hip hop, contemporary, and jazz. She is also certified through Acrobatic Arts.

Always wanted to try ballet but weren't sure where to start? This six-week introductory session is designed specifically for teens and adults with little to no dance experience, offering an opportunity to learn the fundamentals of ballet from the ground up.

This course starts with the absolute basics. Each 75-minute class introduces essential ballet vocabulary, foundational steps, musicality, and coordination through guided exercises and simple combinations. With a gradual, structured approach, dancers will build their skills and confidence week by week in a welcoming, supportive environment.

By the end of the six weeks, dancers will have a solid understanding of ballet's structure, terminology, and essential movements, along with improved flexibility, coordination, and range of motion. Most importantly, they'll have the foundation and confidence to take the next step in their dance journey, whether that's joining a beginner ballet class or continuing to explore the dance styles.

No experience? No problem! Everyone starts somewhere, and this is your chance to discover the joy of ballet in a fun, encouraging environment. Take that first step and see what you can accomplish in just six weeks!

Choose an Austin Prep Education Rooted in Augustinian Values

Austin Preparatory School

Austin Preparatory School, located in Reading, Massachusetts, is an independent Catholic prep school rooted in the Augustinian tradition. Serving students in grades 6 through 12, Austin Prep has cultivated a close-knit learning community since its founding in 1961. Guided by its mission to inspire hearts to unite, minds to inquire, and hands to serve, the school challenges students through a rigorous college preparatory program that includes honors and Advanced Placement courses, personalized instruction, and intentionally small classes. An Austin Prep education is preparation for the journey of life. Beyond academics, the school’s unwritten curriculum – the lived expression of veritas, unitas, and caritas (truth, unity, and love) – forms the heart of its mission. “At Austin Prep, we are on a journey that is life-changing and important,” says Head of School James Hickey, Ph.D. “Our patron, St. Augustine, embarked on a journey for the truth. At our core is an institution on the same journey, committed to exemplary teaching and learning.” Serving grades 6–12 under one roof allows this leading prep school to guide students through every stage of development—academic, social, emotional, physical, and spiritual. Community stands at the center of this experience, nurturing belonging and inspiring students to lead lives of purpose. Austin Prep athletics teams, competing in the New England Preparatory School Athletic Council (NEPSAC), are recognized among the best north of Boston, reflecting the same drive and integrity found in the classroom. Nearly every graduate continues on to a four-year college, prepared not only for success in higher education but for a meaningful life shaped by faith, friendship, and service.
