Undergraduate studies – Dance, Choreography

Ballet

About the programme

The ballet programme is aimed primarily at ballet teachers. Until now, ballet has been the only branch of the arts in which ballet teachers were not required to hold a higher education degree. As this gap in knowledge has proved harmful for children, changes in this area can be expected in the future.

Alongside the methodology of classical ballet and of style and character dances, the programme provides the professional and practical knowledge required in physical preparation of the dancer, preventive medicine, physiology, psychology and pedagogy, acting and music, choreology and dance history, organisation and management in culture, stage, audio and video technology, and other contextual fields.

Sklep KŠZ, 22. 3. 2023

In the 2022/23 academic year a new curriculum was adopted for the higher education study programme Dance, Choreography in the fields of Ballet, Contemporary Dance and Urban Dance. Students who enrolled in a field in previous academic years may complete the old programme until the 2024/25 academic year. After that date all students must complete their studies under the new programme. In the event that studies continue after 2024/25, the Committee for Study Affairs is responsible for aligning students’ records and determining any additional requirements.

Specifics of the Ballet programme

There is no audition for the Ballet programme.

Candidates must submit proof of successfully completed ballet high school or appropriate ballet education, on which the Committee decides. At admission, candidates do not perform a practical dance/choreography part of the examination. The Committee will assess psychophysical abilities and potential for ballet studies based on submitted documentation and an interview.

Enrolment is open to current and former dancers/pedagogues and choreographers, as well as to young people after completing ballet school who wish to obtain a higher-education degree in ballet.

How do you enrol in Ballet?
