Daniel Arizmendi is taking enrollments for a new ballet school, Ballet Belariz. 

Belariz Ballet provides students the opportunity to learn quality movement, discipline and freedom of expression through classical training.  Holding to the belief that each individual artist has a singularly unique voice to create truth and beauty, the school aims to equip students with the knowledge of classical technique and awareness that will be utilized whether or not a performing career is pursued.

Daniel is trained in both classical and contemporary ballet, having worked with Alonzo King's Lines Ballet Ensemble.  As a teacher and choreographer, he creates original works for ballet companies, dance schools, musicals, and more. He is currently a Principle Dancer of the Redding City Ballet.

Participants learn how to support and nurture themselves and surround yourself with others that will do the same! This 13-week course is filled with activities to open each participant's creative eye and demonstrate that they too have an inner artist that is yearning to be discovered and nurtured. This program is for people who want to write, paint, sing, draw, dance or act, just to name a few. In this program artists and non-artist alike dissolve blocks by the simple process of engaging in discovering and recovering their creative powers. You will begin to move through self-doubt, negative conditioning and self-destructive behavior and live a more creative, artistically true life
