What is cecchetti?

The Cecchetti method provides a completely balanced and analyzed system of theory and execution.

Developed by Italian ballet master Enrico Cecchetti (1850–1928), this method emphasizes technical progression, musicality, and artistry, fostering essential skills like balance, poise, and strength. Teachers undergo rigorous training to ensure mastery of corrections, common errors, and artistry at every level.

Cecchetti training is a rigorous method which pays careful attention to the laws of anatomy. it develops all the qualities essential to the dancer- balance, poise, strength, elevation, elasticity, “ballon”, etc. it is classic in its purity and clear-cut style.

“why take ballet exams?”

Ballet exams are valuable for serious ballet students because they promote the development of strong technique, artistry, and quality of movement.

The examining process gives each student a goal to work towards and allows them to achieve it. it requires discipline to study theory and work hard in class to reach the technical requirements for each grade level. achieving goals heightens self-esteem by allowing the dancer to graduate to the next level upon successful completion of the previous grade. the benefits of using a method that builds from one level to the next is imporatant in developing a well-trained dancer.
