Ballet camp is a vacation and summer school
Each child is waiting for the summer holidays and those who are engaged in dancing are no exception. Studying at school, almost daily lessons in choreography and regular rehearsals are a huge burden. The opportunity to relax and spend time with friends is rare.
Therefore, each child is waiting for three months of summer, in which there is always a place for adventure, all-round communication with peers and homework in school subjects is completely absent.
However, one should not lose physical shape even during this wonderful time. The childneeds to continue studying, honing his skills in classical dance and Contemporary at thesummer ballet school with teachers of the highest class. Within the framework of the
season, the child can study individually, including creating and working out his own solo dance.
When the ballet camp is located on the Black Sea coast in Bulgaria, all classes are successfully combined with active rest on the sea, bright events in the life of the children’s community and creative implementation, for example, in the filming of a film and much more. At the end of the season, purposeful students are expected to enter the stage with their dances in the large gala concert of the summer school.
In the summer school of the Imperial Russian Ballet, your child will have fun, interesting,he will have a good rest, replenish his health and, most importantly, improve his technique of performing classical and modern dance!
