PTP (3-4 days per week short program)

Coming in September 2022 ! Contact us for more info!

Professional Training Program (short program) is for talented students age 11-16. 

Classes are kept small so that dancers receive the finest quality ballet training in a “semi-private” training environment in which size does not exceed 8 students. This level trains 3 weekdays days and Saturday. This is for students who want to have a great training but can not commit to everyday classes at this point.

This level develops the strengthening of stability in all classical ballet movements both on demi-pointe and pointe. Focus is on the mastery of the technique of beats, tours and larger poses.  In this level begins the development of plasticity of the arms and body as the combinations become more complex and advanced.

Each student is given an opportunity to learn pieces from the classical repertoire, as well as contemporary group pieces and character dances to be performed at a professional venue on a full-size stage twice a year. Performances in community settings are scheduled throughout the year. Selected students are chosen for national and international ballet competitions.

Private instructions are available by appointment.

The PTP includes: Classical Technique, Pointe, Repertoire, Character, Contemporary, Pilates, Conditioning and Stretching.

Admission to the Professional Training Program is by audition only.
