BALLET CURRICULUM
(see schedule below)
Safety is our top priority. Our dedicated use of the American Ballet Theatre’s National Training Curriculum is your assurance of safety and dependability.
The AMERICAN BALLET THEATRE® National Training Curriculum is a breakthrough 8 level program that combines high quality artistic training with the basics of dancer health and child development. The ABT® National Training Curriculum consists of a comprehensive set of age-appropriate, outcome-based guidelines to provide the highest quality ballet training to dance students of all ages and skill levels.
End of year ballet exams are required of all student program ballet students in order to determine progress and advancement. The exams help students understand the significance of the classroom work for their development as dancers. Also better objectivity and feedback is achieved when several faculty members, some who may have never met the students, administer the exams and determine advancement.
Students who are 8 years and older, who have had previous experience, and who are interested in enrolling, must make a placement audition appointment to determine level. Call 718-891-6199.
