Offering the finest tuition in Classical Ballet since 1960
Charlesworth Ballet School offers Classical Ballet training to dancers 4 years of age and above. Our syllabus is based off the Vaganova method of training.
The Vaganova technique fuses elements of the traditional French style of ballet technique, with aspects of the Italian Cecchetti ballet method. The Vaganova syllabus is founded on the idea that when a dancer is introduced to a new step, he or she will already possess the correct strength and foundation necessary to execute this movement safely and accurately. This strength takes time to build and requires consistent hard work. The Vaganova training system is designed to involve the whole body in every movement, with equal attention paid to the upper body, legs and feet. Vaganova believed that this approach increases consciousness of the body, thus creating a harmony of movement and greater expressive range. The Vaganova Ballet method is acknowledged all over the world as the foremost training syllabus of Classical Ballet.
