Hong Kong Intensive

The Royal Ballet School returns to Hong Kong for a non-residential Spring Intensive Course for dancers aged 7 to 18.

The course features a non-selective programme across three half-days for dancers aged 7-8 to develop their skills and explore their love for dance in a supportive and inspiring environment, and a selective programme across five full-days for dancers aged 9-18 designed to be immersed in the School’s world-class System of Training.

Under the guidance of the School’s expert Artistic faculty, aspiring dancers will participate in a comprehensive programme that includes classical ballet technique, repertoire, character, body conditioning, stagecraft and creative classes.

The Royal Ballet School’s Hong Kong Spring Intensive is made possible by generous support from The Croucher Hong Kong Charitable Trust.
