The High Performance Programme in Dance (PAR in Dance) is a training program for young dancers (between 16 and 22 years old) who want to make the leap to the professional world. For this we have an experienced team of teachers who have had a long career as principal dancers. Apart from the ballet classes in Barcelona (Terrassa), the programme is complemented with several of our own productions, masterclasses and access to the entire dance program of the Factoría Cultural de Terrassa.
35 HOURS
A week. From Monday to Friday from 10:00 am to 1:30 pm and from 2:30 pm to 5:30 pm, PAR in Dance days include ballet, pointe, repertoire, pas de deux, variations, body conditioning, contemporary dance and rehearsals.
ON STAGE
Experience. It is essential that dancers gain stage experience. For this reason, we offer the possibility of participating in our own productions such as The Nutcracker.
MASTERCLASS
With professional companies. During the 2023/24 academic year we received visits from companies such as the Ballet Nacional de España, Ailey II or the Ballet Nacional de Cuba.
TRAINING
Individualized. We work with small groups in order to offer a close treatment. We want the teacher to be able to advise the dancer during the process of preparing the material for the auditions.
