Artists of the Vienna State Ballet and Beyond

Our faculty includes artists who have built their careers on the most celebrated stages in the world. They have performed principal roles in the classical and neoclassical repertoire, collaborated with leading choreographers, and dedicated themselves to the art of teaching. Their presence at the Intensive offers participants an unparalleled opportunity to experience the standards, discipline and artistry that define professional ballet at the highest level.

Individual Coaching and Personal Feedback

Class sizes are intentionally small, and every masterclass includes individual corrections and personal feedback. Faculty members observe each dancer closely, offering guidance tailored to their physical abilities, artistic temperament and personal goals. In addition to group classes, every participant may book private individual lessons with the faculty artist of their choice.

A Bridge Between Training and the Profession

For pre-professional and advanced dancers, the Intensive serves as a genuine bridge between years of training and a professional career. Direct contact with working artists provides insight into the expectations, discipline and artistry of the profession. Many of our faculty are themselves involved in auditions and company decisions, and the relationships formed during the week can open doors for dedicated dancers.
