Level 1 Beginner Ballet is the first level/stage in the Classical Ballet Sequence training and is taught at a moderate pace. It is a beginner level ballet class which teaches proper and/ or classical ballet training through a fusion of the Cecchetti, Vaganova, and Russian ballet methods. Students dedicate much of their training in this level towards the vocabulary inherent to ballet through sight recognition and verbal acknowledgement. They learn to use the vocabulary in its proper form and address all ballet skills and/or moves appropriately. Level 1 Beginner Ballet is also an extension of fundamentals taught in Pre-Ballet 1, Pre-Ballet 2, and Pre-Ballet 3 as it incorporates higher levels of difficulty in turning, jumping, and ballet phrases. The students will learn the classical ballet barre, as well as beginning center work. The center work will focus on port de bras (arm positions), balances, basic turns, and jumps.
