Inspired by the IBStage concept, our summer intensive will culminate in a showcase (Gala) on July 19th, allowing students to demonstrate their progress and achievements. Only students from levels A and B who have attended the last two weeks of the intensive will be eligible to participate in this final performance.
The showcase will be presented in a gala format, where students will have the opportunity to dance alongside professional dancers, including stars from renowned companies such as the Royal Ballet and American Ballet Theatre. The celebration of the gala will depend on the number of students enrolled in the course. Tickets and the gala program will be published on this page.
At Ballet de Catalunya, we recognize the critical importance of mental health, injury prevention, and proper nutrition in supporting dancers’ well-being, enabling them to prevent mental health issues and injuries, and helping them to sustain long, successful careers.
For this reason, students in levels A and B will benefit from dedicated seminars on psychological coaching for dancers, where they will learn techniques for managing frustration, emotions, pressure, and other challenges unique to the dance profession. Additionally, we provide specialized nutrition seminars focused on injury prevention, as well as practical sessions on preventing dance-related injuries through safe practices.
Our goal is to equip students with the knowledge and tools to support their physical and mental resilience, both essential for a fulfilling and lasting career in ballet.
