Our Ballet Method: Borovansky Syllabus
We proudly teach the Borovansky Russian Ballet Syllabus — a well-known method developed by Edouard Borovansky, one of the key figures in Australian ballet history. His system is upheld today by the Australian Institute of Classical Dance (AICD) and is known for its high standards and strong technique.
Why We Use It:
- Proven Results: Many dancers trained in this method have joined top ballet companies around the world.
- Strong Technique: It blends Russian strength with Australian artistry, helping dancers grow in both power and grace.
- Clear Progression: The syllabus is structured by level, with regular exams and certifications to track progress.
- Industry-Approved: Recognized and respected by professionals across the dance world.
