Summer Ballet Levels Guide
Primary
All students ages 5 to 6 take the Primary level, regardless of previous experience. Students learn and practice foundational steps, movement patterns and exercises needed for ballet and many other forms of dance. Emphasis is placed on whole body coordination, fun and enjoyment of dance!
Beginning/Early Intermediate
This class is recommended for ages 8 to 12. Here, we primarily focus on material from Level 1 and 2 of our curriculum. We also incorporate more intermediate level skills for students ready to be challenged! If your student has less than 2 years of formal structured ballet training, they will likely begin here regardless of age.
Some students in this class may also be permitted to supplement with the intermediate/advanced level class once per week.
Intermediate/Advanced Ballet
Recommended for ages 11+ with at least 2 years of ballet training and a strong mastery of fundamentals. Pointe work is incorporated for students who are ready. Two days per week minimum is required. Three is recommended. Private lessons should be used to supplement these classes for pre-professionally focused students.
