The School of Ballet Theatre UK’s Men’s Ballet Course brings together young men through a shared passion for dance and a common drive to become the best dance artist they can. The program delivers focused training, performance opportunities, and one-on-one mentoring to help young men achieve growth and success in the professional dance world.

 

The Men’s Ballet Course curriculum runs in conjunction with the School's BA (Hons) Ballet Performance degree and combines men’s focused technique classes in classical ballet, contemporary dance and technical jazz along with classical variations, pas de deux and jazz partner work, body conditioning and strength training to cultivate refined, versatile and powerful dancers. The timetable provides all the classes required to develop male dancers ready for the industry whilst still ensuring the delivery of the degree programme to provide the dancers with a credible qualification for the rest of their lives. 

 

Students on the course will establish a strong foundation through daily technique classes and benefit from specific areas of focus including pirouettes and allegro to achieve a refined masculine presentation. Careful consideration is also placed on the understanding of the responsibilities required to become a strong and dependable dance partner.
