Ballet51 Dance Studio

Our students' age ranges from their 20's to 60's.
As this is a ballet school for adult learners, there is no upper age limit as long as you are:

1. Adult, 18 years and above;
2. Passion for ballet: Hardworking, Learning Attitude, Respectful;
3. Good Understanding of English;
4. Physically Fit for ballet exercises and
5. Able to self-complete registrations/forms Online and read/reply message via Telegram app as the school basically runs on a self-service & DIY philosophy to keep costs down.

Minimum = 10
Maximum = 13-19 depending on Class Level.

Wearing proper ballet attire sets your frame of mind and mood to be ready for dance and ballet class proper. This has been attested by many of our adult students when they transit to wearing proper ballet attire.

So, students have to adhere to our dress code for class to ensure safe dancing and for proper correction to be made by the instructor:

For the Ladies: Ballet leotard (any style and length of sleeves) and tights to be worn in class with ballet slippers.
No Black or Dark Coloured Tights for Ladies.
Chiffon wrap skirt may be worn: However, the longest front side must reach middle of the thigh or shorter. It cannot be longer. The back part of the skirt can be longer.
No opaque skirt to be worn as it blocks the view of your alignment.

Not allowed: demi-pointe shoes, leg-warmers, shorts of any kind, 3/4 pants, jazz or yoga pants/tights, black or dark coloured tights, t-shirts, tank tops, tubes, sports bra, long wrap skirt that covers the knees.

For the Gentlemen: Tight T-shirts, tights or bike shorts with ballet slippers.
Not allowed: baggy T-shirts, loose shorts, jazz pants, leg-warmers.

You may wear any colour but ensure the colours don't clash or cause a distraction when you dance.

In general, 3 areas of the body should not be "blocked" from the instructor's view:

1. ankle
2. knee
3. hip.

These 3 areas form the basic alignment fundamentals of ballet technique. When they are covered with oversized clothing, the instructor cannot accurately correct your alignment and, hence, your technique.
The tights keep the leg muscles warm throughout the class or rehearsals, thereby reducing the risk of injury while at the same time allows the instructor to check for correct alignment of the legs (again for injury prevention).
The ballet slippers are made to fit the feet to avoid tripping over while dancing and also allow for more flexibility to articulate and point the feet, enhancing the beauty and extension of the whole leg while working the intrinsic muscles of the feet.
So, the whole aesthetics of the ballet wear enhances the beauty of the human form (from which modern choreographers use in their creation of dance) and at the same time not hinder the technique needed to execute the complicated steps and movements.

Safety: For Safety Reasons to both yourself and your classmates:
~ Ornaments of any kind on any part of the body are Not allowed when taking class.
This includes watches, necklaces, dangling earrings, wristbands, bracelets, anklets, jewelleries of any kind and fitness trackers.
~ Eye glasses must be firmly secured to prevent them from flying out when executing sharp turns of head.

NOTE: Students not suitably dressed for class will be asked to observe class and not participate.
This includes hair as well. See Item #4 below.

Click here on how to choose the correct Ballet Slippers (Look under the heading "Ballet Slippers").

Hair must be tied up in a ballet bun and must not cover the face in any way to obstruct your view during movement. This is not only for aesthetics reasons but also for safety.
Not allowed: long or short pony tails, loose braids or long fringes that cover eyes or distracts you when moving.
Hair pins must be firmly secured to prevent coming loose, flying "projectiles", posing a danger for self and others.

NOTE: Students' hair not properly tied for class will be asked to observe class and not participate.
This includes class attire as well. See Item #3 above.

Should there be a change, this calendar will be updated first before any announcement.
Term calendar will only be confirmed one week before Term starts.
Do note that there will be No notification of when there is a lesson and when there isn’t. It is the student's onus to note down the class schedule.
We will only inform the class (via Telegram Channel) should there be any last-minute change in the Calendar after Term has started.

As of 29 August 2022, the Govt has eased mask wearing for indoor studios located on non-healthcare facilities.
With that, Mask Wearing during dance class is Optional

Students are expected to practice personal and social responsibility.
If you are not feeling well, please refer to the information at the top of this page.

Medium of instruction is in English with ballet terminologies called out in French.

This is a training school for adult in the fine art of Ballet. All efforts are made to ease the adult learner into this "mystical", secret and beautiful art form we call, "Ballet".
Steps taught are what is used in professional schools. We do not "dilute" the standards just because it is for adult learners. Rather, steps are slowly introduced in detail with their respective names, meanings and proper use of muscles at our Foundation Class.
Hence, all exercise combinations are called out in its French terms with explanation in English where necessary so that students are thoroughly educated in this fine art.

The Vaganova method is used to lay the groundwork for working and understanding artistry and technical detail. For the higher level classes, other syllabi are used for technical proficiency and performance. Developmental teaching methods are used for the safety of our students while learning this highly skilled art form.
See Item #9 below on "What is Expected of You during Class".

Foundation Class: This is an Introductory course to introduce the fundamentals of ballet steps at the barre of the Vaganova method and correct posture for this art form. All steps are demonstrated in detail. Each step’s French terms are introduced, its meaning explained along with which muscles to use so that a proper execution and understanding of each step is achieved and learning speeded up. At every lesson, 3 to 4 new steps are being taught.
Hence, this Introductory class is to be taken as a whole course of 10 lessons for it to be complete and beneficial. Each new step taught is a stepping stone for the next. This Foundation Class gives you the "tools" needed to progress to the next and succeeding levels.
A mid-term written test will be given to assess student's ability and tenacity to move on to Beginner's Class.
No Single Tryout Lesson or pro-rating is available for this class due to the above reasons.

(During the 1st Lesson, "Starter-Kit" Notes are given out to those registrants who have already paid for Full-Term enrolment before Term starts. In it are the classroom etiquette, what to wear for class, names of all the ballet steps at the barre in French and its respective meanings in English, 8 Directions of the Body, etc.
Note: This is only given Once. Charges apply for Reprints. See Item #25 below.)

All other classes: there are No demonstration of steps as they are already covered and equipped at Foundation Class. Demonstration and / or explanation is only for New steps being taught or to demonstrate the dynamics or proper technical execution of a particular step.

The reason is tri-fold:
~ Empowers students to have a good working knowledge of ballet exercises: know what each step is called in French, the meaning of the French terms and how it should be executed.
~ Should students go overseas and take ballet class, they will not be “lost” if French terms are used. Should the teacher there demonstrates the steps, then it is a bonus.
~ Allows students to focus on improving their technique and artistry instead of merely copying steps from the instructor.

Hence, students are expected to learn and be familiar with the French terminologies. This ensures they are not “handicapped” but rather better equipped when they go overseas and attend classes.

As we are using the Vaganova syllabus, there are set feet and arm positions different from other syllabi, exercises to be memorized, etc:

1. positions of feet and arms
2. 6 Vaganova port de bras (Beginner and Level 1 students only need to memorise 1st to 4th port de bras)
3. 8 Directions of the Body which are taught in Foundation Class.

Our classes are taught based on levels.
We do not have an "open class" concept.
So, students have to achieve the level of the class they register for.
If you are coming from another school, have a look at our Technique Class Pre-requisites page to see where you are at.
You may opt to come for a Single Lesson at prevailing rate for an assessment.

Have a Passion for Ballet:

• Be Teachable and come with an attitude to learn French, rhythm, coordination, alignment, biology, physics, mathematics.

• Be Diligent to complete homework(s) given and quickly memorize French terminologies of each step, the 8 Directions of the Body and set exercises to speed up your learning so you can spend time working on technique which is crucial in ballet training and moving from one level to the next.

• Leave all your problem(s) outside of the studio when you come for class as it will distract you from learning and dancing safely.

• Come Early to warm up your muscles. Sitting down in a straddle split while looking at your phone is NOT warm-up. You have to move all your muscles to the point of just breaking a sweat or feel your muscles are warming and ready to move. Focus and pay attention to the area you are warming up. Be intentional in warming up. Hence, it's advisable not to engage in long conversations while warming up. Cultivate this habit as this is for injury prevention and dancing safely. In short, be nice to yourself, protect yourself, empower yourself by being warmed-up and ready for class.

  • If you are late for a lesson, DO NOT immediately join the class at the barre in the middle of an exercise.
    You wouldn’t know what the exercise is about and will disrupt those around you.
    (Don’t worry, your instructor already knows you are late the moment you enter the studio.)
    Instead, go to an unoccupied corner and warm up. Only join in the class when the exercise has ended on both sides.
    Don't walk in front of the instructor while he/she is talking unless motioned to so.

• Respect your instructor and give him/her your Full attention when he/she is talking or giving a correction especially so when it is not directed at you.
  Don't talk / ask your classmates questions or practise any exercises just because you're bored of hearing it. Other students may want to hear it and you're preventing / distracting them.

  • Always ask your instructor if you are Not clear about a certain step or exercise.
    Here, at Ballet51, we are more concerned about whether students understood the material being taught in class.
    Ability to execute the steps correctly and perfectly will come with time and much practice.

  • When you are being corrected, demonstrate the step again with the correction to let your instructor know you understood the correction and, at the same time, help with "muscle memory" to correct and remember it. This is Not the time to "save face". Again, ask if you're not clear abut the correction. Don't just stand there trying to figure it out yourself.

  • When Corrections are called out without singling out a student's name, it is meant for ALL students in class.
    When the instructor stops a class to correct a student, it is for Everyone in class to watch and learn together.
    It is Not just for that student alone. Always Bear this in mind.
    Much can be learned from watching a correction.

• Dress appropriately for Class. See item #3 & #4 above.

• Payment of school fees does not “reserve” you a specific spot at the barre.
  Go to the barre where it is unoccupied.

  • Be aware of your surrounding when dancing in groups in the centre.
    Do not "cut" into somebody's path endangering your fellow classmate(s).

• Ballet51 Dance Studio will communicate with students issues that require immediate attention via our School's private Telegram Channel.
  Do download this free App to be in the loop.
  Ballet51 will Only be using Email for lengthy replies or sending receipts.
  Ensure you have downloaded Telegram app in your phone so that we can add you into our private Telegram Channel from "Ballet51 Dance Studio".

  If, however, you choose to keep your privacy, we respect that. You'll then have to ask your classmates on updates from the school as we're unable to write and send private individual messages or invites of any kind.

• Be Responsible. Observe and abide by all the rules and policies set herein and in the Studio or risk having lesson(s) forfeited.

  • Have Open Communication with the Instructor(s) or the School to settle personal issues.

• More information available at our DANCEblog: "Ballet Class Etiquette for Adult Learners".

• Food for Thought: "If an exercise seems boring, it's because you made it so."

Make-up lesson (MUL) is Not an entitlement.
It is a Goodwill from us as we understand that sometimes you can't make it for class for whatever the reason.
What this means is that No Exception(s) will be given for whatever reason you may have for missing the deadline for request, missed the MUL entirely or not complying to our MUL Policy.
There is No MUL for MUL. You'll just need to re-apply, subject to your remaining MUL quota and below conditions.

(To help you understand a bit better, take the example of a movie ticket. If you bought a ticket for a movie at a specific date and time and didn't show up for it for whatever the reason, the cinema is not obligated to give you a replacement ticket or monetary compensation. Their obligation is to ensure the movie is shown on the specific date and time indicated on the ticket. So it is with us. Our obligation to students is to ensure classes are conducted on the specified dates and times.).

Unfortunately, we're unable to extend this Goodwill to pro-rated lessons as this Goodwill is only for Full-Term Enrolled students.

Criteria:
You can make up for missed lesson(s) as long as it is at the same or lower level within the Same category of class (i.e. technique class for technique class; pointe for pointe), and to be completed within the Same Term.
You cannot make up Technique lesson with Pointe lesson.

*Pointe Class students*: if we do not have another pointe class, an exception has been made for you. You can make up missed lessons up to a maximum of one (1) lesson for any other technique class which is at the same or lower level than your current technique class within the Same term. This exception will be void when we open another pointe class. This exception is Not applicable to Beginner Pointe class unless otherwise specified by the School.

Condition:

• It is Only for Full-Term Enrolled Students (FTES), subjected to space availability, the prevailing pandemic issue and must be completed within the Same registered Term. So, we do not guarantee it.
  By Full-Term Enrollment, we mean 10 lessons have been paid for the Same class within the Same term (for example: 10 lessons of Sat 10AM Beginner Class for Term 3).
• MUL(s) cannot be exchanged for monetary compensation since it is Not an entitlement but a Goodwill from us (see above illustration about movie ticket).
• MUL(s) must be booked directly with Ballet51 MUL Scheduler and to be Completed within the Same Term.
  • Link to Ballet51 MUL Scheduler is given every 1st day of the Term via our Telegram Private Channel.
  • FTES can then check for the available slots and submit their request at least 1 week in advance of their intended MUL.
• You can request for MUL(s) in advance as long as you complete the number of lessons you enrolled for within the same term.
• Come Only after you've Received Confirmation from Ballet51 via Telegram app or email.
• See below regarding further conditions for medical and non-medical MUL(s).

Non-medical MUL:
Due to limited barre space and to prevent abuse of this Goodwill:
Each FTES is limited to 2 non-medical MULs per registered Full-Term class per term, (subject to above Conditions).
     For example, if you've registered for 2 Full-Term classes (eg., BSaAM + BSaPM),
     then you'll be limited to 4 non-medical MULs (subject to above Conditions).

Medical and non-medical MULs are not applicable for students who paid for Pro-rated Lessons.

If, however, you've enrolled for Full-Term but at the Same Time want extra lessons but can't commit to Full-Term for the 2nd class: Additional lesson(s) will be pro-rated without any discount.
For this case, if you paid for 5 or more additional lessons, you'll be given 1 extra quota for non-medical MUL.

Again, please note that MULs are not an entitlement.

Medical MUL:
MUL(s) due to medical reason will require an official medical document support from your doctor to be emailed or Telegram to Ballet51 within the Same Term.
There is no limit to MUL(s) with medical document support (subject to above Conditions).

Without any of the document support stated above, it will be deemed as non-medical and subjected to 2 MULs per Full-Term class enrolled per term (subject to above Conditions).

Change of MUL Date:
A Processing Fee will be imposed for Change of MUL Date/Time. You can only make the change Once.
We are unable to entertain any Change of Date/Time if request is made after your MUL Date and Start Time.

MUL Cancellation or "No Show":
Absence (with or without Medical Certificate), cancellation or "no show" will be considered as "attended" due to space being reserved specifically for you.

The moment your MUL is approved, your "absent" slot is released and no longer yours. So, you can't cancel your MUL and go back to your slot as if nothing has happened. Someone may have already taken it. Even if it's available and you want to go back to it, it's considered a change as that slot is no longer yours and Processing Fee applies.
There is no MUL for MUL.

Others:
Do check with your classmates what you have missed as all our classes (with exception of Foundation and Pointe Beginner) are ongoing classes with new steps or set combinations being taught every once in a while where appropriate.
There are No MUL for Foundation and Beginner Pointe Classes as there is no other level the student can go unless there is another Foundation / Beginner Pointe class within the Same Term (subject to above Conditions).

Term or make-up lesson(s) cannot be brought forward (transfer) to the next term unless it is for medical reasons that require a long period of rest that extends beyond the current term.
Note: This must be clearly indicated in the medical document support stating the date of commencement to the date of completion. Open-ended or unspecified dates will not be accepted.

If that is the case, a Request for Transfer along with a copy of the relevant Medical Certificate or Letter from your doctor is to be emailed or screenshot to Ballet51 Dance Studio before the Registered Term ends. This is to ensure you've sought medical advice and found out the root source and cause of the injury to prevent future re-occurrence.

Lesson(s) brought forward (transferred) for the above reason can only be done once and cannot be spread over different terms.
If the class you’re currently enrolled in is Full, you will only be allowed to transfer 50% of your unused lessons (rounded up to nearest integer) to another term. So, if you have 3 lessons left, you can transfer 2 lessons to the next term. There are opportunity costs incurred here as your slot could have been given to someone else. Hence, it's best to find a replacement for your slot as that slot was previously reserved Only for you.

Once Lesson(s) is/are transferred, there will be No Refund.

We are unable to hold a transfer indefinitely. Hence, there's a one(1) year validity counting from the Term in which you registered. However, Ballet51 Dance Studio reserves the right to change this validity without any compensation as Transfer of Lesson(s), through no fault of the School, is another Goodwill from us. It is not an entitlement.

We will postpone lesson(s) when Haze reaches a
“Very Unhealthy Range” of > 200 PSI.
When that happens, we will put a notice at our Online Class Calendar.

Updates about the Haze condition in Singapore are available at https://www.haze.gov.sg/
