This course trains students in the study of ballet at the intermediate level with a strong emphasis placed on developing a Barbadian model.  Classes are based on the RAD and or Cecchetti method.  It is designed to provide and enhance in students a strong technical base on which to build and develop their skills at ballet, through an understanding of their own bodies and the dynamics of movement.  It allows for the use of free style ballet incorporating exercises performed at the barre and centre using ballet terminology.  Allegro and Adagio combinations will be taught in order to improve on musicality and performance qualities.  The course will also facilitate students’ understanding of the various styles common to ballet.
