Designed for dancers who want a challenging summer dance experience and to  improve their level of ballet technique to prepare them for the next dance season.  Students will participate in daily ballet technique classes, preparatory pointe or pointe (age specific) and will learn variations, contemporary dance, floor barre as well as core, balance and toning exercises.  Dancers will be introduced to Progressing Ballet Technique, an innovative program developed by Marie Walton-Mahon for students to understand the depth of training muscle memory to achieve their personal best in classical ballet. Conditioning exercises using a fit-ball and other small equipment are used to activate specific muscle groups.

Dancers will learn choreography from some of the most popular ballets, which will be reinforced with a brief history lesson about the ballet.

Dancers will enjoy watching the “ballet of the day” movie during the lunch break.
