Curriculum
The method of teaching and training is based upon a
thorough, comprehensive, classical training curriculum
that is carefully tailored to fit the students`
abilities.
The Academy curriculum includes Ballet Technique, Point
Work, Repertoire, Pas De Deux, Modern Choreography,
Character Dance, Historical Dance as well as general
education / professional orientation classes.
The Bolshoi Ballet Academy takes pride in its faculty
staff with international teaching and performing
experience.
Classes are carefully graded both by age and by
technical level, and each student receives personal
attention and guidance required for his / her progress.
The professional training program comprises 2 semesters:
fall and spring. The Academy vacations may vary
depending on the performance schedule, but the basic
vacation includes 7 days in late October / early
November (grades 1-5), 2 weeks in early January (all
students), 7 days in late March / early April and the
summer vacation through August (all students).
The vacation schedule is set anew each year.
The Bolshoi Ballet Academy operates in Russian. Securing
an adequate grade in Russian means the intermediate
level of language proficiency required, according to the
Federal standards, by the students in their everyday
lives, cultural, educational and professional areas of
communication.
Formal evaluations are conducted twice a year to update
the students and their parents on the progress as well
as areas of concern.
Tuition fee must be transferred to the Academy’s account
twice a year: 50% of the fee amount before the start of
the fall semester studies and the remainder before
January 15th of the next year. The tuition fee covers
classes, accommodation at the dormitory and 4 daily
meals.
Upon enrollment all students will be required to submit
bank funds transfer orders confirming payments of the
tuition fees.
