BRIEF CAMP DESCRIPTION: The Ballet at Home™ Summer Intensive Course© offers an innovative, challenging curriculum through customized Zoom-based training sessions, newly designed supplementary materials and opportunities to learn performance-style solos especially choreographed for these times.
CAMP INSTRUCTIONAL ACTIVITIES OFFERED:
Dance, and more.
CAMP PROGRAM INFO: Individualized instruction in ballet technique, conditioning, repertory, and creative independent assignments will be given with the caring attention that is the hallmark of JMBT’s school. Participants will receive a student instructional workbook and other course materials thoughtfully designed to optimize comprehensive ballet training during times of necessary physical distancing.
Students will work closely with members of JMBT’s faculty in limited-size classes offering substantial individual feedback. Every student can expect considerable advancement from expert technical training and the opportunity to learn, rehearse, and produce solo performance videos of new, original choreography.
The Ballet at Home™ Summer Intensive Course© is intended for committed students who understand that current social restrictions do not have to prevent them from making the progress they typically expect from a live intensive summer program.
