EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS 

Now Offering 4 Different Programs!

​

Kentucky Ballet Theatre has recently expanded its outreach program model, successfully piloting this program in March 2017 in Lexington with a grant funded by the Junior League of Lexington and previously in 2016 foundational support in Pensacola, Florida. Traditional School Visit Programs and Nutcracker or other storybook School Show Programs 

 

The following are four different programs that will be offered. We believe they are most suited for elementary and middle school students.

  • Creative Movement
    About CM1: This class is designed for children 3-5 who are toilet trained and ready for group classes. This 45- minute class meets one day. Children will begin to learn the elements of creative movement and ballet: Socialization skills such as turn-taking and following instructions will be emphasized. The dancers are encouraged to expand their movement vocabulary through games and creative exploration of dance movements. Self-esteem and confidence is developed while dancers are having fun.
  • Pre-Ballet 1
    About PB1: This level is designed for children ages 5-6. This 1.5 hour class meets Saturdays. This class is perfect for the young beginner and continues the teaching of previous classes. Additional ballet terms, posture, stretches, and barre work are introduced as well as specific focus on class etiquette and respect.
  • Pre-Ballet 2
    About PB 2: This level is designed for children ages 6-7. In addition to the 1-hour ballet class, students take a 30-minute strengthening/stretching class. Classes meet on Saturday mornings. This class is perfect for the young beginner and continues the teaching of previous classes. Additional ballet terms, posture, stretches, and barre work are introduced as well as specific focus on class etiquette and respect. Classes offered include strength and ballet.
