Exploring Ballet Workshops

Exploring Ballet

The National Ballet of Canada offers in-class movement workshops designed to develop your students’ movement potential and at the same time learn a bit about classical ballet.

Led by experienced dance educators, these workshops are a learning experience for both students and teachers.  Through the use of movement and music your class will be transformed into an arts-minded community as your students’ imaginations are encouraged to soar.  Resources are available on our website for teachers to continue the exploration and demystify the use of dance in the classroom.

Each workshop is 1 hour and can have no more than 30 participants of similar grades.

Cost: $125/workshop

Exploring Ballet Series

You can also book a series of workshops to allow for increased opportunities for students to work in groups, develop longer movement sequences, strengthen their minds and bodies and enhance their enjoyment of dance.

Through the use of dance concepts students will learn a warm-up connecting brain and body, develop dance skills that are age appropriate, problem solve through the use of movement, create short dance sequences and learn to be observant audience members.

The dance educator can incorporate subjects being studied in the classroom into the students’ movement learning insuring the dance class is relevant, fun and interactive for many learning abilities.

Cost: $500 for 5 workshops or $1000 for 10 workshops
