INTERMEDIATE & ADVANCED PROGRAMS

Admittance to these programs are by audition only. The students in the programs train daily to master the advanced technical skill, consistency, musicality, articulation, and natural expression. To provide the performing experience that is a critical component to the student's development, the Chamberlain Performing Arts Company (formerly Chamberlain Ballet Company) was created in 1984 as a 501(3) nonprofit organization. Comprised of advanced level students, the CPA Company performs professional level repertoire in theatrical venues throughout Plano, Richardson, Frisco, McKinney, and North Dallas.

BALLET COMPANY

This level offers a comprehensive curriculum of classes that incorporates daily technique classes as well as classes in pointe work, variations, and repertoire. Today's professional dancers are required to be highly versatile and so students are also highly recommended to take classes in composition, modern and jazz. Supplemental classes in yoga, Pilates and body conditioning are periodically offered throughout the year. Special seminars in nutrition and injury prevention are also offered.

At this level, students continue to hone their artistic and technical skills as they begin preparation for the annual audition process that professional dance companies conduct in search of new talent. Students at this level may have the opportunity to perform with Chamberlain Performing Arts Company. Weekly class schedules will vary throughout the year to accommodate rehearsals and performances.

The advanced levels of study prepare students to enter the competitive world of professional classical ballet.

For ages 14 years and up.

Minimum attendance - Full curriculum = 12-18 classes per week
