first of all, 驱赶isnt a good word to be used here, could be 使其，驱赶 means drive someone or something to do sth or make changes, and 使 means make someone to do something , 其here is a pronoun, refers to the ballet dancer. And should use 增高, instead of 增长 here , because增长isnt for "height", it is for "length".
了 refers to the change of movement., not necessarily past tense.
