The Minnesota Ballet is able to educate students while creating a greater awareness of dance by promoting an understanding of the use of the body in this athletic and artistic form, creating an overwhelmingly positive aesthetic experience.
Dancers recreate a professional dancer s daily class including barre and centre exercises.
They also discuss ballet technique and the training of a dancer. This is followed by a presentation of ballet choreography. The students then have the opportunity to ask questions. In this students are shown how everyday universal movements such as walking, skipping, and waving are the basics for dance movement. Students will discover that by simply expanding on these universal movements, anyone can dance.
