Summer Information 2010

The Academy of Ballet offers training for both the student
preparing for a professional career and those who are
studying ballet for its many other benefits. All classes are
carefully graded both for age and technical level and each
student is given the individual attention so necessary for his
or her progress.

The summer course is a six-week period of intensive
training for the pre-professional, advanced and intermediate
student. Classes include daily technique in classical ballet as
well as pointe, variations, pas de deux and men’s technique.

The Summer Course will culminate in a studio performance
giving the dancrs an opportunity to perform the repertoire
learned during these six weeks of intensive study.

Level I (advance) students will also learn both classical and
contemporary repertoire while Level II (intermediate) students will have classes in performance skills, adding a performance quality to classroom technique and different movement styles used in various classical and contemporary ballets.

There is also a program designed to meet the special needs of the adult students. Emphasis here is on toning, strengthening, stretching and loosening the body using classical ballet to achieve these goals. Along with improving one’s physique, the adult student becomes acquainted with and part of a great art form.
