Junior Division
The Junior Division ballet curriculum incorporates principles from today’s leading classical ballet training methods but is founded on the Royal Academy of Dance curriculum. It is an integrated system of required classes spanning several years of training.
The curriculum is divided into levels to ensure that students are introduced to new skills in a manner appropriate to their physical, mental, and emotional development. Based fundamentally on the Royal Academy of Dance syllabi, our program provides a strong foundation in classical ballet technique and overall dance education.
In Junior Division I, II and III classes will incorporate beginning character and free movement work. Junior Division III female students will also begin preparing for pointe work. Junior Division IV students are evaluated for progression onto pointe, which takes place in the 2nd half of the school year.
This program is designed to guide the developing dancer toward the pre-professional Senior and Conservatory Divisions. All listed classes for each Junior Division level are required. All Junior Division students are eligible to audition for the company’s production of The Nutcracker and will participate in the Annual Student Performance in June.
New students must take an audition class before enrolling. Please contact Artistic Director Nancie Woods at nwoods@BalletNova.org.
**Please note: Tuition shown is for the full academic year, from September 2009 through June 2010. Re-enrollment will not be necessary for the winter-spring semester except for additionally enrolled youth division classes. Tuition may be paid in full or in as many as four installments (with an additional installment fee). First payment is due upon registration, 2nd payment by October 15, 3rd payment by January 15, 2010, and 4th payment by March 15, 2010.
Please see the dress code for each level’s appropriate attire.
