INTENSIVE PROGRAM
The Ballet Caliente Intensive Program guides students to improve their technical ability, as well as incorporate additional dance related disciplines that compliment their training. Unlike big company intensives, the Ballet Caliente Intensive Program exposes dancers to exceptional individual attention from their instructors. This program offers training from Ballet Caliente staff, as well as multiple guest artists on separate weeks.
Intensive weeks consist of classical technique, classical variations, and an assortment of 'speciality' dance genres, such as Jazz, Modern, Tap, Contemporary, Character, etc. Placement is required for new students. Please email schoolmanager@balletcaliente for information regarding a placement class.

Summer Intensive Program F.A.Q's
DO I NEED TO ENROLL IN ALL 4 WEEKS OF THE PROGRAM?
No! You can enroll your dancer in one, two, three, or all four weeks of the Summer Intensive Program.
WHAT OTHER CLASSES ARE AVAILABLE?
Dancers participating in the Ballet Caliente Intensive Program are also able to enroll in our Technique+ Classes and Mini Intensives (age allowing).
WHAT ABOUT LUNCH?
Dancers in full day intensives will need to bring a lunch with them each day. They will be given a break mid day to relax and enjoy their lunch, before continuing into afternoon classes. Dancers in half day intensives (Elementary Intensives) will not need a lunch, but should pack a small snack instead.
WHAT SHOULD MY DANCER WEAR TO SUMMER CLASSES?
We know that many new students join us during the summer! That's why our dress code is more relaxed during this time. Students may choose to wear their class leotard, if they are a returning dancer, or a leotard of their choice. All female dance students will need pink or skin-toned ballet slippers and pink or skin-toned tights as well. Boys should select black leggings (or form fitting black pants) and a white form-fitting shirt. More information on our year-round dress code can be found by clicking here.
If you have never shopped for ballet flats (slippers) before, please visit a dance store to ensure your student has the best brand/style for their feet. Hair must be in a bun, or pulled away from the face in a neat and tidy manner, for all classes.
HOW DO I REGISTER FOR FALL CLASSES?
Placement letters will be emailed at the end of July for all summer students. This will tell you which class level you should register your child for in August.
