Summer School offers dancers aged 10 to 18 years the chance to further their training in a culture of collaboration and excellence, mentored by Queensland Ballet Academy's esteemed Faculty. The program includes classes in classical ballet technique, pointe work*, repertoire, character dance, contemporary dance, and male technique (subject to number of male participants).

Students will also participate in informative discussions with a variety of professionals from Queensland Ballet, the broader industry and/or affiliated health fields. On the final day of this program, there will be a viewing day for parents/carers to see what their child has learned in classes throughout the week.
