Beyond Technique Intermediate (BTI) is a two-week intensive for students in Ballet 3-6. BTI not only refines a dancer's classical technique, but also introduces performance-oriented skills including strategies for learning choreography, how to count and interpret music, and developing stage presence. Dancers will have daily class and then dive into rehearsals to learn new and creative choreography with advanced dancers from Ballet 8 acting as mentors for the younger students. The daily schedule for this program is Monday-Friday from 10:00am-2pm. This session culminates with a brief in-studio performance.

For non-BMS students, please email Brandon at bramey@balletmemphis.org for placement.
