The Full Experience
At its core, the program at Ballet East is a carefully curated 10+ year journey designed to facilitate the complete realization of powerful cognitive, technical, artistic, emotional, and social skills that form the foundation for your child’s future. We place an enormous amount of importance on the continuation of your child’s education and the consistency of their training. Due to the structure of the curriculum, it is not permitted for families taking part in summer studies to “pause” their child’s progress and tuition to rejoin mid-session due to vacation or travel. The curriculum is based on sequential learning; therefore, if your child decides to drop in mid-session, they will be asked to continue during the following session.
Curriculum for BBSI
The curriculum for the BBSI will include Ballet Technique, Pointe, Pre-Pointe, Pas de Deux, Contemporary, Plyometrics, Progressing Ballet Technique, Strength and Stretch, Character, Dance History, Repertoire, Composition, and more!
BBSI Daily Schedule
The BBSI (Ages 9+) will run Monday – Friday weekly from 9:00 am – 4:00 pm (Group A & Group B)
