Grow your potential…
Our Accelerated Program is truly unique! We have created a specialized program of ballet progressions to fully nurture the potential in young dancers. Dancers need to be invited to the program and demonstrate determination, physical ability, musicality and team work. Our ballet progressions are pulled from Royal Academy of Dance, Cecchetti and Vagonova methods bringing the best of all concepts together. Dancers who complete the program will be ready to enter the En Avant Pre-Professional Program after.
Dancers in the Accelerated 1 & 2 Program will do two ballet technique and two conditioning classes each week. Totalling 4 hours per week coming to $264.60 per month. They will also be able to receive 50% off any additional classes at WAPA. We do suggest dancers add Contemporary Creative to be fully ready for the En Avant Pre-Professional Program.
Dancers in the Accelerated 3 Program will do two ballet technique, two conditioning, 1 modern and 1 improvisation classes each week. Totalling 6 hours per week coming to $352.80 per month. They will also be able to receive 50% off any additional classes at WAPA. Once finished Accelerated 3 dancers will have to option to enter the En Avant Pre Professional Program.
