Curriculum

Students will have a minimum of 15 classes per week, Monday through Saturday. Weekday classes are scheduled between the hours of 9am and 6pm. The core curriculum includes technique, pas de deux, pointe for girls, and batterie for boys. Additional classes may include variations, contemporary dance, character dance, fencing, dance history, and Pilates mat classes. As part of their class work, students in the more advanced levels will learn selections from San Francisco Ballet’s unique and diverse repertory.

Students will also learn about San Francisco Ballet during weekly “Meet the Artist” seminars at the dormitories. Students will have the opportunity to meet Company members who will discuss their careers and show video selections of San Francisco Ballet’s repertory.
