Summer School offers dancers aged 10 to 18 years the chance to further their training in a culture of collaboration and excellence.
Queensland Ballet Academy's esteemed Faculty are ready to mentor talented young dancers during these established Summer School programs.
The Summer School program for dancers 10 to 18 years, includes classes in classical ballet technique, pointe work*, repertoire, character dance, contemporary dance, and male technique (subject to number of male participants).
Students also participate in informative discussions with a variety of professionals from Queensland Ballet, the broader industry and / or affiliated health fields. On the final day of this event there will be a viewing day for parents/carers to see what their child has learned in classes throughout the week. Please note we are unable to accommodate viewing of the program classes on any day other than the viewing day.
Program participants have the option to select in the registration form whether they are interested and happy to be approached about further training opportunities with Queensland Ballet Academy. Please ensure you speak with your main dance teacher prior to registering for the program and we encourage you to be transparent with them if you select these options in the form. Please note only select participants will be contacted about further training opportunities following the event.
*For safe dance practice, Queensland Ballet Academy Faculty will assess older students' ability for pointe work.
