Advanced Ballet

Training at our advanced level focuses on refinement of technique, development of individual artistry through both classical ballet and contemporary work, and healthy ballet fitness. We train-to-performance and are pleased to offer our annual Nutcracker in December and our Spring Concert in March.

Level 8 & 9

Dancers train five days a week from Tuesday through Saturday.

In Advanced Ballet, dancers refine fundamentals, build stamina and artistry, and develop a cohesive aesthetic. Contemporary ballet continues to be part of the advanced syllabus.

Dancers in Levels 8 and 9 collaborate with visiting choreographers and work in multi-age groups to support one another in voluntary student projects of original choreography.

Advanced dancers are also invited to serve as mentors to younger dancers as ‘Ballet Buddies.’ Dancers who are Juniors or Seniors in high school are able to apply for the Honors program of the National Dance Education Organization, earning awards that can be recognized on college applications.

LEVEL 9 culminates Marin Ballet’s training program with a classical and contemporary syllabus that becomes more individual based on the skills, artistry, and goals of each student.

Marin Ballet’s faculty supports each dancers’ relationship with dance as they continue to train and transition through high school.
