Entry requirements: This course is for beginners, so you don’t need to have any dance experience.
Classical Dance still plays a prominent roll in the Western dance scene. People have been performing classical ballet for centuries, and still it has not lost its popularity. This dance technique characterizes itself through uniquely defined physical movements and a set curriculum.
You will start your class warming up with exercises at the barre. Attention will be paid to different techniques such as pirouettes, plies, tendues, rondes jambes, stretches, jumping techniques and graceful ports des bras. Ballet is not only great for the body, but also strengthens your posture and provides for an intense workout!
If this is your first ballet course, special ballet shoes are not a must. Instead, you can easily start learning this dance with nothing else but socks on your feet! In case you would still like to have a pair of special ballet shoes, please ask the teacher for tips in the first class.
Furthermore, it is important that you feel comfortable in what you are wearing. Oversized clothes aren’t practical, since it makes it hard for the instructor to make comments on your posture or provide corrections. Do you have long hair? Then it’s best to tie it up.
Deze cursus zal in principe gedurende de gehele cursus wekelijks op dezelfde dag en tijd plaatsvinden. Mocht er een les uitvallen wegens een feestdag of wegens andere oorzaken (bijv. ziekte docent, organisatorische redenen), dan zal de les aan het eind van het cursusprogramma worden ingehaald. Houd er dus rekening mee dat een cursus hierdoor enkele weken kan uitlopen. Je kan in onze voorwaarden meer lezen over deze regeling.
