The Cecchetti Method of Classical Ballet has been developed to educate and prepare dancers from their very first ballet class to the professional level company dancer. The Cecchetti Method and syllabus are uniquely effective as dancers are not only trained to dance at a very high level but educated, as well. The syllabus has been designed to be age and advancement specific with material that is appropriate for dancers growing bodies. The Cecchetti method also advocates natural turnout, based on a natural range of motion, rather than teaching dancers to force the turnout of their feet. Dancers are required to learn concepts and theories of movement in addition to rigorous technique. The syllabus provides building blocks that are constant from the lowest to the highest levels and assures that every type of ballet movement is mastered and included.

The Cecchetti Method is internationally recognized as the preeminent method of ballet pedagogy. Enrico Cecchetti was the first to develop and establish a teaching methodology with all movements and placements deeply rooted in the principles of anatomy. His method is extremely beneficial to all dancers as the Cecchetti base provides dancers with impeccable technique and enables them to embrace any choreographic style.

Here at Dance Co, our students are mentored by our esteemed Cecchetti trained and certified Ballet faculty. This method allows our students to attain control, understanding and enjoyment as they grow to become strong and intelligent dancers. We encourage our students to participate in the Cecchetti Examination process to assess their progress and level of proficiency and provide them with goals and tangible evidence of achievement that is recognized internationally.
