Ballet Studio is COCA’s Jr. Ballet Intensive. This full-day, 3-week intensive includes ballet, modern, and character technique classes led by American Ballet Theatre National Training Curriculum Pre-Primary–Level 5 Certified Instructors Norma Gabriel and Carrie Fernandez. Students focus on elements to improve their training as performing artists: musicality, the expressiveness of contrasting movement energies, and character development. Technical focus includes pirouettes, petite allegro, adagio, and pointe (pre-pointe when appropriate). The dancers learn the process of preparing for a performance.The intensive is divided into two sections—based on each dancer’s ability. Dancers must be levels Ballet II, IIA, III, IV, or V (if currently enrolled at COCA) or have completed more than three years of classical ballet training. Culminates with a free, open performance for family and friends on Friday, July 19. Auditions are held at COCA’s Regional Summer Intensive Auditions, January 12–14, or contact Norma Gabriel, Ballet Studio Coordinator, at ngabriel@cocastl.org to submit a video audition.
