Klassiek Ballet

Two-year Associate Degree in Classical Ballet - Starting in 2020-2021, it will be possible for NBA students to take this relatively new course within professional education – co-existing with Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees – and to complete it in two years with an Associate Degree certificate at higher professional education level.

Two-year Associate Degree in Classical Ballet - Starting in 2020-2021, it will be possible for NBA students to take this relatively new course within professional education – co-existing with Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees – and to complete it in two years with an Associate Degree certificate at higher professional education level. The two-year AD programme focuses on technical and skilled knowledge of ballet (classical, pointework, male technique, variations, repertoire and work experience with Dutch National Ballet). In addition, the familiar theoretical subjects will still be given and attention will be paid to strength training, Pilates and body conditioning. So the programme looks similar to our current year 1 and 2 Bachelor’s programme, but the competencies taught have been adjusted here and there, and are now better attuned to the professional field of the classical ballet dancer. The current third year, the apprenticeship year, will be discontinued. The practical experience gained by students in the productions by Dutch National Ballet, however, will certainly remain part of our AD programme.
