The Full Experience At its core, the program at Ballet East is a carefully curated 9+ year journey designed to facilitate the complete realization of powerful cognitive, technical, artistic, emotional, and social skills that form the foundation for your child’s future. We place an enormous amount of importance on the continuation of your child’s education and the consistency of their training. Due to the structure of the curriculum, it is not permitted for families taking part in summer studies to “pause” their child’s progress and tuition to rejoin mid-session due to vacation or travel. The curriculum is based on sequential learning; therefore, if your child decides to drop in mid-session, they will be asked to continue during the following session. Curriculum for Repertoire Intensive The curriculum for the Repertoire Intensive will include Ballet Technique, Pointe, Pre-Pointe, Pas de Deux, Contemporary, Choreography Workshops, Plyometrics, Progressing Ballet Technique, Strength and Stretch, Character, Repertoire, Composition, and more!

This summer, Ballet East invites dancers to join our Choreography and Repertory Summer Intensive, a dynamic, performance-driven program centered on working as a collective ensemble. Designed for dancers who thrive in group settings, this intensive focuses on learning and performing classical and contemporary repertory quickly and effectively—just as dancers are expected to do in professional rehearsal environments. Dancers learn multiple ballets and repertory works while developing ensemble awareness, spacing, timing, and musical unity. Training includes quickly learning choreography, partnering fundamentals, and artistic coaching that balances individuality with group cohesion. Daily stretching, conditioning, and cross-training build stamina and prevent injury. Weekly in-studio performances strengthen stage confidence. Ideal for dancers looking to improve performance skills, strengthen ensemble work, and experience professional rehearsal dynamics in a cohesive group setting. The Choreography and Repertory Intensive offers a true studio-to-stage experience, helping dancers grow not only as individuals but as essential members of an ensemble.
