Ballet II

This course is a build up to the basic principles of classical ballet technique learnt in Ballet I. During this class, the students will deepen skill, knowledge and appreciation of the ballet technique and develop the understanding of the technique onto another level. Emphasis will be directed towards learning and developing both technical skills and the aesthetic sensibilities. Exercises will become a little more complex and new movement vocabulary will be introduced. Differences in movement quality, energy and rhythm will be explored.

Learning outcomes:
  • to increase the understanding of the proper alignment within the personal limitations
  • to be secure in the use of the basic positions of arms and feet
  • to develop the knowledge of terminology according to the new material given
  • to increase strenght and flexibility through the barre and center sequences
  • to increase the coordination of simple steps and arm positions
  • to learn movement with quicker footwork and dynamics
  • to develop musicality and rhythm through longer and more complex combinations
