Description

The Project Ballet Partial-Day, Partial-Week Intensives are primarily for dancers placed in Level 4 and up for the 2023-2024 school year. Partial-Day, Partial-Week Intensives will focus solely on classical ballet technique and pointe technique. Dancers will be divided into two levels each week. Levels will be newly divided up each week based on the demographic of students enrolled for that particular week and the best use of studio capacity limits for that particular group of students. 

 

Schedule

The partial-day, partial-week intensive will be held from 10:00am-2:30pm, on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of each week. Please drop-off dancers no more than 15 minutes early. 

 

Faculty

The Project Ballet Partial-Day, Partial-Week intensives will feature a different guest teacher each week. Each level will have one class per day with the guest teacher. The weeks of June 6 and August 22 will feature guest teacher Michael Vernon, Chair Emeritus of the IU Jacobs' School of Music. The weeks of May 30 and August 15 will feature guest teacher Eddie Moffat, formerly a principal dancer with Ballet Austin and Cleveland San Jose Ballet. Additional classes will be taught by Project Ballet full-time faculty.

 

Tuition

The Project Ballet Partial-Day, Partial-Week Intensive is $250 per week. (Currently enrolled PB dancers who are returning for the 2023-2024 school year may use a discount code to receive $50 off their enrollment, per week.) A minimum $50 deposit is due at registration. Payment plan options will be available at check-out. Tuition is non-refundable. Tuition cannot be transferred, except in the case of documented illness or injury documented by a doctor's note. If a doctor's note must be produced by 4:00pm on the Friday prior to the Monday of the intensive week starting, then summer intensive tuition can be transferred into account credit to be used for future classes.

 

Enrollment Eligibility

The partial-day, partial-week intensive is geared for dancers who have been placed in Project Ballet Levels 4, 5 and Advanced for the 2023-2024 school year. New or guest students should contact the Artistic Director (mcleish@projectballet.org) to arrange for a virtual or in-person level placement evaluation.

 

Attendance

Students must pay for the entire three-day intensive, however students will be permitted to miss days/partial days if they are ill, injured, have a schedule conflict, etc. Please make sure to communicate your absence to the front desk via an ABSENTEE FORM. Please note that Project Ballet students have a minimum attendance requirement that must be met, and if absence prevents them from meeting this requirement, they will be required to enroll in an equivalent course of private lessons. See the section below, entitled "Minimum Attendance Requirement".

​

Minimum Attendance Requirement

Project Ballet students placed in Levels 4 and 5 must attend a minimum of three weeks of summer intensive. Advanced students must attend four weeks. The full-day intensive satisfies one week of this summer requirement. Partial-day, partial-week intensives satisfies 0.5 weeks of this requirement. Dancers who fail to meet this attendance requirement, due to schedule conflicts, illness, injury, etc. will be required to enroll in an equivalent course of ten private lessons per intensive week missed, or two private lessons per intensive day missed. Exact requirement will be calculated based on how much of the minimum attendance requirement was missed.
