A full-time vocational dance training framework designed for young dancers preparing for professional careers in dance.

The programme is structured to accommodate different training needs through a combination of pathway options and focus tracks, while maintaining a shared educational framework, common standards, and a cohesive cohort experience. Training emphasises technical development, rehearsal practice, artistic responsibility, and continuity, supporting dancers in the transition from advanced training towards professional practice.

All participants belong to the same programme cohort. Individual pathway and focus choices shape training emphasis, while shared modules, rehearsals, and academy activities ensure regular artistic exchange across the group.

Structure

Programme Structure

Dance Vision is structured around two complementary dimensions: Pathway, which defines the weekly training commitment, and Focus, which shapes the primary artistic emphasis of each dancer’s training.

Together, these elements form an individual training profile within a unified educational framework.

Pathway Options (Weekly Training Commitment)

Full-Year Pathway (5 days per week)
Designed for dancers seeking a comprehensive, immersive training rhythm that closely reflects professional company life.

Approximately 11–15 training units per week
Constant ballet and contemporary training
Rehearsal practice, repertoire work, and creative modules
Intended for dancers aiming for maximum continuity and depth in their training

Compact Pathway (3 days per week)
Designed for dancers who require a more flexible weekly structure while maintaining professional-level training standards.

Approximately 6–9 training units per week
Core classes selected from the Full-Year curriculum
Emphasis on technical consistency, artistic development, and structured progression

Both pathways operate within the same pedagogical framework and uphold the same artistic and educational standards.

Focus Options (Training Emphasis)

Alongside the chosen pathway, participants develop a primary artistic emphasis based on their individual profile, strengths, and training objectives.

Ballet Focus

Emphasis on classical ballet technique
Pointe work and or men’s technique
Ballet repertoire and stylistic development

Contemporary Focus

Emphasis on contemporary dance techniques
Creative processes and compositional exploration
Modern and contemporary movement practices

Balanced Track

An integrated approach combining ballet and contemporary training
Designed for dancers seeking versatility and a broad technical foundation

Individual Training Profile

Each dancer’s pathway and focus are combined to form an individual training profile within a shared programme environment.

This structure ensures:

Consistent educational and artistic standards
Cohort connection across pathways and focuses
A cohesive, company-style learning experience

While minimum training units are defined by the selected pathway, the programme is designed to support dancers who wish to engage at a higher intensity and take full advantage of the available training opportunities.
