Charlotte Ballet – Summer Intensive

Charlotte Ballet’s Summer Intensive is recognized for its strong training, diverse classes, rigorous schedule and supportive faculty. Through this program, dancers are encouraged to refine their strength in classical ballet technique and explore new movement. The Academy uses the Summer Intensive as a time to evaluate dancers for acceptance into our year-round training program as a Trainee within the Pre-Professional Division. Dancers who wish to be considered for the Pre-Professional Division are required to attend our Summer Intensive.

Training six days a week, dancers ages 11-22 work with renowned resident and guest teachers, who are invested in each dancer’s growth. The Summer Intensive concludes with the Summer Repertory Performances at Charlotte Ballet’s Center for Dance.

To be considered for acceptance into Charlotte Ballet’s Summer Intensive, dancers must attend an audition scheduled on the National Audition Tour OR submit a video audition. Please note that at least one year of previous pointe training is required for Summer Intensive acceptance.
