The SCB International
Intensive is aimed at gifted dancers who are ages seven to eighteen
(Grades 2-12) and who are interested in pursuing professional
training. Care is taken to ensure the daily schedule reflects
international standards for dance education at every age. Children
in this intensive are given the opportunity for exposure to the
world of dance on an international platform ensuring they are
prepared and making connections in the professional community they
will enter. The classical curriculum is rooted in the Vaganova
Method following the Bolshoi Ballet Academy Methods for Teaching
Classical Dance. Students are educated not only on the technique
and artistry of dance but also on their body awareness and
understanding.
Dancers will be able to
train throughout the summer with both SCB full-time faculty and
guest faculty from around the world. These intensives act not only
as a way for dancers to immerse themselves in their passion, but
also as an opportunity to audition and be assessed for the upcoming
’21/’22 season.
Classes will be formed
based on both age and level. Daily Classes will consist of
Conditioning, Classical Ballet, Pointe, Contemporary and Guest
Workshops.
