The Vaganova Method is a ballet technique devised by the Russian dancer Agrippina Vaganova. It is designed to involve the whole body in every movement, with equal attention paid to the upper body, legs and feet. This approach increases consciousness of the body, thus creating a harmony of movement and greater expressive range.

The guiding principle of Cincinnati Dance Academy is to take kids curiosity and teacher's knowledge and open the door to the world of dance and art. The result is a confident, creative, graceful and self-disciplined person who is positive and successful in life.
