The Cecchetti Method of Teaching

The Cecchetti Method of Classical Ballet has been developed to educate and prepare dancers from the very first class as a pre-ballet child to the professional level performer who is ready to audition for a company. Good ballet training is not the exclusive property of the Cecchetti Method.  What makes this method so unique and effective is its syllabus and the fact that the dancers are not only trained to dance but educated, as well. The syllabus is developed and organized to be age and advancement specific. Students are taught material that is appropriate to their growing bodies. Dancers are required to learn concepts and theories of movement. The syllabus builds on a constant thread from the lowest to the highest levels and assures that every type of ballet movement is included

Examinations provide goals for students and tangible evidence of achievement.
