[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_accordion _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″ admin_label=”Accordion”][et_pb_accordion_item title=”When can a student enter the program?” open=”on” _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]Dancers must participate in an ABT\u00ae evaluation for placement, and are then able to enroll in the program. Evaluations are held in June, August, and February. If a dancer is interested in enrolling but was unable to attend a published evaluation, the dancer may be personally evaluated at the instructor\u2019s discretion.[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”What is to be expected at the evaluation?” _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]Depending on the age and skill level, dancers will be in the evaluation 30 \u2013 60 minutes. During this time, they will be evaluated on barre work, centre work and across the floor work. Dancers must wear a black leotard, pink tights and pink ballet shoes, with hair in a secured bun. Boys must wear proper ballet attire, or a form fitting top and bottom. All dancers participating in an evaluation will be placed in the level most appropriate for their success.[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”How are students placed in levels?” _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]Students must meet a minimum age requirement for each level. Once the minimum age requirement is met, dancers are placed in the appropriate level according to skill. Dancers are not placed in levels based on their number of years in ballet. Each student must be evaluated for placement.[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”How long does a dancer remain in each level?” _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]Progression is based on skill level, and not on time spent in each level. Depending on the student, some may progress through a level quickly, and others may remain in a level for an unspecified length of time. Students may be placed in the next highest level at any time throughout the year, as deemed appropriate by the instructor. In this case, the instructor will have a conversation with the parents, before approaching the student.[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”What is the attire?” _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]Once a dancer is placed into a level, he\/she must wear the ABT\u00ae specifically assigned ballet uniform, available through special order with our office staff.

[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”When can a dancer go on pointe?” _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]In the ABT\u00ae curriculum, dancers are placed on pointe once they have sufficient technique and skill to be placed in Level 3b. Typically, students are a minimum of 11 years old. Just as with all progression in the ABT\u00ae curriculum, placement is based on skill level, and not on age or the number of years they have been in ballet. If your dancer aspires to dance on pointe, the ABT curriculum is the proper path for her ballet education.[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”What\u2019s the difference between the ABT\u00ae classes and your other ballet classes?” _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]Virtuosity\u2019s recreational ballet classes are perfect for those who are looking for one class per week, one hour per week. Often, dancers start here to discern if they would like to take the next step and participate in the ABT\u00ae program. The ABT\u00ae program is appropriate for students who would like to attend class more than once weekly, and is especially appropriate for dancers who aspire to one day be on pointe.[\/et_pb_accordion_item][\/et_pb_accordion][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_cta title=”Get the ABT 2022-2023 Rules & Policies” button_url=”https:\/\/vegagym.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/ABT-2022-2023-Rules-Policies.pdf” url_new_window=”on” button_text=”Download” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#8972c2″ custom_padding=”21px||20px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
