Cecchetti Classical Ballet has a rich heritage, offering a clear and logical pathway of technical progression paired with inherent musicality and a unique sense of style. The Cecchetti Method and its principles have played a formative role in the training of many of the world’s greatest ballet dancers, choreographers, and directors.

Grade 6: The exam is aimed at children ages 12 and over who have had considerable previous ballet experience (usually 4 or more years on 2 + classes weekly). Preparing for the Grade 6 exam requires a minimum 2x a week commitment. It will take a minimum of 3 or more terms to complete on two classes per week. At Grade 6 there is basic pointework, which is not examined, Students are assessed by the class teacher before they can go on pointe. The Grade 6 exam has the required minimum QCA points that can be included when applying for university.

Students will have the opportunity to showcase their skills and progress by performing in our annual show at the Parr Hall. This event is a highlight of the year, allowing students to experience the thrill and joy of performing on stage in front of an audience.
