The general aims of the KG Dance Excellence Program is to:
- Develop and provide a strong overall technique in all aspects of Ballet
- Provide strong ground work in Contemporary and Jazz dance techniques and other dance genres where applicable.
- Develop rehearsal and performance skills, working as a team
