Our Founder

Gabrielle Palmatier Marshall, a seasoned performer, choreographer, and teacher with decades of experience, leads the Evergreen School of Ballet. Her diverse background and pedagogical approach blend traditional ballet training with a contemporary perspective.

Our Approach

We offer small class sizes to ensure personalized attention and tailored feedback. Our unique curriculum emphasizes building a solid foundation in ballet technique while fostering creativity and individual growth. We focus on:

• Developing Strong Foundation: Students are taught proper alignment, posture, and basic steps before progressing to more complex movements.
• Building Strength and Flexibility: We incorporate physical conditioning exercises alongside ballet training to improve balance, flexibility, and strength.
• Nurturing Creativity: We encourage exploration and self-expression through movement, allowing students to discover their unique voices in ballet.

We offer a diverse range of programs to cater to different needs and aspirations:

• Recreational Ballet: Ideal for beginners, this program introduces basic ballet vocabulary and fundamental movements.
• Pre-Professional Training: For dancers with some experience, this program focuses on refining technique, stamina, and artistry.
• Private/Semi-Private Lessons: Tailored to individual needs, these sessions provide personalized feedback and structured learning.

Our Beliefs

Ballet teaches more than just physical skills. It instills valuable life lessons such as:

• Discipline and Hard Work: Consistent practice and dedication are essential for progress.
• Respect and Teamwork: Working together fosters a supportive and inclusive environment.
