BCAA ELITE BALLET PROGRAM

What We Do

BCAA wants each dancer to receive the level of training and attention that they need. Our leveled program ensures that our dancers are in the appropriate class, which will help them progress at a consistent rate.

How It Works

We ask that all dancers interested in taking leveled ballet at BCAA participate in a placement class. In these classes, our instructors will evaluate each dancer and place them in the appropriate class. Once admitted a minimum attendance of two times per week is required. Classes are offered multiple times a week to provide options for attendance.

Starting 2024, all dancers at this level are required to attend a summer ballet intensive. These may be hosted through BCAA or another entity.
