Offering classes in the Graded work of the Cecchetti Ballet Method by Hilarie Neely, licentiate member of the Cecchetti Council of America. A 3 day refresher for Levels 1-3, June 20 – 22.

The Cecchetti Method offers a teacher a completely balanced and analyzed system of theory and execution for the planned development of a student. Students are advanced into class levels on the basis of technical mastery of specific steps, understanding of alignment/center, use of the French terminology, musicality and interpretation of the music. Taking Summer Classes in the Cecchetti Method gives a student the ability to understand in more depth their study of ballet. THIS IS A PERFECT WAY TO PROGRESS in a short period of time!

If you have never taken Cecchetti grades, you must start with Level 1-2.

Students 9 years and older, completed Footlight Ballet 2 or 3 (studying 2 years min.), approval of the school director are eligible to participate in these Cecchetti classes, starting at Level 1.
