The French Curriculum
At the School of Ballet San Antonio, we proudly embrace the distinctive French Curriculum that sets us apart as the only dance school in the USA to offer this unique training approach.
Why Does this Matter?
Rooted in centuries of tradition, our curriculum passes down the artistry and precision of ballet from generation to generation of teachers and students, all word-of-mouth with no written curriculum.
This curriculum emphasizes the timeless elegance and grace of classical ballet, focusing on impeccable alignment and placement to ensure both beauty and injury prevention. With a curriculum that spans over 400 years of history, tracing its origins back to the time of French royalty, students experience a rich legacy of dance that continues to inspire and elevate the art form.
