Ballet training is in many styles with emphasis on the Checchetti method of ballet holding teaching certificates through grade 5 level out of 7 levels. The Cecchetti method is a style of classical ballet that is based on the teachings of Italian ballet master Enrico Cecchetti (1850–1928).[1] The associated teaching method, which was also devised by Cecchetti, is a strict training system with special concern for anatomy within the confines of classical ballet technique, and seeks to develop the essential characteristics of dance in its students through a rigid training regime. The goal is for the student to learn to dance by studying and internalising the basic principles, in an effort to become self-reliant rather than imitating the movements executed by their teacher.[citation needed] The training method traditionally has seven grades with examinations up to diploma level. Personal training private ballet lessons as well as ballroom are available by appointment. To schedule a lesson give John a call @ 602-626-8224
