At Mallory Academy Of Dance

Our Ballet Advanced 1 class follows the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) Vocational Graded Syllabus, designed for students who have successfully completed RAD Intermediate and or Foundations. This level offers a significant step up in both technical and artistic training, laying the groundwork for those pursuing advanced ballet study or considering professional dance pathways. The Advanced 1 syllabus builds on classical ballet technique with increased complexity, including pointe work, adage, allegro, and expressive performance. Dancers are expected to demonstrate maturity, control, and musical interpretation through challenging exercises and choreography. To maintain the integrity of the RAD progression system, students must complete and pass the Intermediate RAD exam before advancing to a higher level. Participation in the exam is not optional for those wishing to move beyond this level. Pointe work (for students with instructor approval and physical readiness). Focus on musical phrasing, artistry, and performance quality. Preparation for RAD Advanced 1 exams and assessments. This class meets for 120 minutes and is billed monthly.
