Marat Daukayev School of Ballet’s Summer Intensive program is designed to significantly strengthen students’ ballet technique within a short period of time. Whether students aspire to dance professionally or simply want to improve their skills in a friendly and nurturing environment, the summer program provides students with the gift of dancing daily without the added pressure that goes along with the academic school year.
We offer the highest quality of Vaganova based Russian classical ballet training with teachers who encourage every student to achieve their highest potential. Through the study of ballet, students acquire physical coordination, grace, discipline and self-confidence. In class, students learn to use musicality and ballet technique as a vehicle for expression.
