Classical Ballet 4-6 students continue to expand upon the foundation of ballet knowledge, meeting five times per week.

Classical Ballet 4 is a critical transitional year for students, where they continue to develop their vocabulary and technique as they prepare for rigorous advanced instruction. Modern/contemporary classes are added to strengthen the understanding of diverse dance styles and whole-body coordination.

Classical Ballet 5 and 6 students continue to progress in material, focusing on technique, coordination, and musicality. Students engage in petit, medium, and grand allegro, and develop their pointe work and pirouettes. Classical variations are introduced at these levels alongside more opportunities to perform throughout the school year.

Progression within Classical Ballet 4-6 depends on the student’s ability and their commitment to further training. Completion of these levels equips students with a thorough knowledge of classical ballet vocabulary to support promotion to the final levels of study.

Upon moving into the next levels of Classical Ballet Training, students understand a repertoire of ballet technique and have grown into focused and empowered humans, developing skills such as critical and creative thinking, discipline, and time management.
