Holistic Approach
While the class largely focuses on Classical ballet technique and building on the foundations laid by the previous levels to increase the repertoire of steps, the class is a recreational ballet class for those children wanting to experience a ballet class once a week.
There is an element of creative movement within the program, to allow for freedom of expression and children’s own ability to think creatively. Along with set dances, the children will also have opportunities to develop their own choreographic skills within the class.
Final Presentation
The Aspirant program will culminate in a Presentation day - performing class work and dances to an audience and an adjudicator where the children receive an appraisal for their dancing for the year.
