An introduction to the training of children and adolescents in classical ballet. Theoretical and practical classes will examine the logical progression of the teaching of classical ballet for children aged from 11 years to 18 years approximately. Exercises at the barre, in the centre, and exercises of allegro are studied from Years 2 8, equivalent to the Russian training system. There are observation sessions involving ballet students of the appropriate age and level of training. The study of Pointe Work is commenced. The technique for turning is examined, with a variety of preparations and executions.
