ART of Ballet Intensives
The ART of idea
Technique is the foundation. Artistic intelligence is the destination.
ART of Ballet Intensives connect precise classical training with individual correction, repertoire, choreographic understanding and artistic development. Each city develops its own programme rather than repeating the same structure in a different location.
Madrid, Zurich, Marseille and Dresden share one artistic DNA while maintaining distinct age profiles, faculty, repertoire and artistic emphasis.
William Forsythe
A connection that helped shape ART of’s artistic language.
ART of Ballet Intensives are presented with the kind support of William Forsythe. His approach to space, structure and choreographic decision-making is one of the important references behind ART of’s emphasis on choreographic intelligence and independent artistic thinking.
