Professional Training with Chevalier Ballet

Formerly known as the SLK Ballet School Daytime Division, Chevalier Ballet's new Professional Training Program is a trainee program with a 1 to 3-year commitment, designed for students ages 16+ who are dedicated to pursuing a career in dance. Trainees will have the opportunity to experience professional life through rehearsals and performances with Chevalier Ballet, while still furthering their ballet training through daily classes. 

Training & Classes

Trainees will typically attend 5 hours of classes each day, including a ballet technique class and a rotating schedule of classes in pointe and variations, pas de deux, character, contemporary, jazz, pilates, yoga, and more. Because all classes are capped at 15 students, each student is able to receive the personalized instruction that is essential for their growth as a dancer. Classes will be taught by Artistic Director Sara Knight, as well as by the esteemed faculty and guest teachers of SLK Ballet School and Chevalier Ballet.
