Vocational Exams

The vocational syllabus is focused on technique. That doesn’t mean musicality and performance is not important.This is a more in-depth study of ballet.

The vocational syllabus was designed to prepare dancers who want to turn professional. That means, it would serve as a good foundation for dancers to audition for vocational ballet schools

During classes the students wear a uniform and their hair is pulled up in a classic bun, giving them a well-groomed appearance.

Please read the following instructions carefully.

 

General notes:

  • Shoes should be clean. If they are very dirty, clean them with washing-up liquid and a sponge. Do not rub them too much because they are easily damaged. Allow to air dry before wearing (do not machine wash).
  • Shoe laces must be very well sewn.
  • Students must not wear jewellery (not even small earrings) and other accessories during the lesson to avoid accidents.

 

Hair

Schoolgirls’ hair must be pulled back in a classic bun.

 

What do you need:

Fillet (you can get it from a store or from our school and prefer it in the colour of the hair)

Tweezers and hairpins

Hair gel and spray

Elastic for the ponytail

Wet the hair so that it gathers well.

Put enough gel and hairspray in the hair, especially in the front.

Make a ponytail in the center of the back of the head.

Twist the ponytail tightly and wrap it around the rubber band.

Secure it with bobby pins and tweezers.

Finally, pass the fillet 2 or 3 times over the bun and secure with hairpins.

Use hairspray on the bun.

 

*All uniforms are available for sale in our Dance Shop.

Students are expected to arrive at least 10 minutes before the beginning of the lesson in order to be dressed and ready to start class on time. Please inform the school if the student will be late for class or/and will be absent.

All students must bring with them a small towel, a deodorant and a bottle of water.
