Intermediate Classical Ballet
No Leotards Required - Inspiring, Inclusive, Artistic
Intermediate Ballet is aimed at adults who can demonstrate some proficiency in the fundamentals of ballet and demonstrate previous classical ballet training but haven't practised for several years. It allows them to reclaim elements of their technical repertoire as well as introduce them to additional repertoire from the classical ballet canon. It is designed to help adults reintroduce their bodies back to ballet, perhaps to pick up from where they left off before leaving dance classes that were too demanding in terms of long-term commitments.
Adult Ballet Centre Members who have graduated from the Beginner’s Ballet classes may be assessed and moved on to the Intermediate Ballet classes at the instructor's advice.
