BALLET POINT INTENSIVE
June 18th-29th, 2012 from 10:00am – 2:30pm
Our Classical Ballet Program has been developed in order to ex-pose the student to the best of the re- nowned ballet disciplines. Incorporating these ballet techniques into the class- room instruction provides the dancer with the proper placement, alignment and fundamental technique necessary to develop and grow artistically.
BALLET CLASS BEGINNING LEVEL I & II
BALLET CLASS INTERMEDIATE LEVEL III
Depending on previous training the student will be placed in the appropriate level .Dancers will continue to work on expanding and improving their technique and vocabulary .These classes will begin with a non weight bearing floor barre and continue on to barre and center practice.
For students with previous ballet training. Students continue to work on improving and expanding their technique and vocabulary. This class will begin with a non-weight bearing floor barre and continue on to barre and center practice.
PRE-POINTE
This class is designed to focus on the muscles of abdominals, legs, ankles and feet in preparation for dancing on pointe. Some of this class will be done barefoot to emphasize the articulation of the food, and some of the class will be done in soft shoe. Therabands may also be used as a strengthening tool. *Please note this is NOT a pointe class and taking this class does not mean your child is ready for pointe work.
POINTE
Students must be at least 11 years old and possess the necessary muscular strength in order to participate in this class. It is recommended that the students have completed at least 3 years of formal training to be considered for placement in this class, ( formal training is at least 3 hrs of ballet per week).
We will have a audition class the first day of the session to insure each dancer is placed in the class most suited for the students level.
MODERN & JAZZ
Modern: Modern dance is a creative, expressive style of dance focusing on balance, center, and extension. At Pennsylvania Dance Institute we combine many techniques including Graham, Limon, and Horton.
Jazz: Jazz technique develops strength, flexibility, coordination, and the controlled movement of each part of the body. Classes include a warm-up of stretching & isolations, center floor technique, and progressions and combinations.
