BALLET IV & V
Ballet IV will take the young dancer
through "connecting" steps and bras.
A special Pointe Prep class will
prepare feet and legs for pointe
work. In Ballet V the dancers learn
long movement phrases to enhance
musicality and stamina. Pointe
work is introduced to ladies who
have developed sufficient strength.
Variations class can be added for
Ballet V dancers, which will be done
on demi-pointe. Modern and Jazz
classes continue to form a
well-educated dancer. A schedule of
3-5 classes per week is common;
students beginning pointe work
must take at least two ballet classes
in addition to their pointe class. All
pointe classes at all levels must be
preceded by a ballet class.
(Ages are minimum for that level;
placement is at the judgment of the
Director)
