Performing Arts Limited – Class Placement

Classes at PAL are divided into Young Child (3-7 yrs.), Junior (8-11 yrs.), Teen (12-18 yrs.), Age Infusion, and Adult Levels.  Class placement is determined by the age and skill of the student.  The final determination for placement is skill performance.  We do this to assure that all students receive the best program for their ability and enjoyment.  If you are unsure what level you should chose for your student, please call the studio for a free consultation.
