Description
This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to teach Cecchetti Ballet classes at Advanced1 syllabus levels and progression through to this level. This level has been separated due to males and females being segregated during the examination and to reflect the physical and mental development of people aged 15 to 20.This unit is part of a three-year apprenticeship using self-assessment and liaison with a mentor. External studies, including anatomy, childhood development, musicology, first aid and business studies, are also undertaken during the apprenticeship. The knowledge gained from these external studies is applied to the development of lesson plans and delivery, student assessments and the daily running of a ballet school.This unit was developed by Cecchetti Ballet Australia Inc. and is reproduced with permission in the CUA Creative Arts and Culture Training Package. Registered training organisations wishing to deliver this unit must be licensed to do so by Cecchetti Ballet Australia Inc.
