Private Coaching
Additional Training With BABC Faculty Level 2 through Adult
Subject to Faculty and Studio Space availability.
Guidelines for current BABC Students Requesting Private Lessons:
Private lessons are not to substitute regular youth program classes, both during school sessions and any summer program offerings. Students must be enrolled in the full program offering* for their level in order to schedule private lessons. For example, Level 4 ballet technique is offered 4x per week with a minimum enrollment requirement of 3x per week. If the student is only enrolled in the minimum requirement, they are not eligible to schedule private lessons. Exceptions made for students returning from an injury who need personalized coaching to recover and integrate back into their program as well as assistance with video auditions for approved outside training intensives and collegiate programs.
*“Full program offering” during summer programming months is defined as student enrolled in a minimum of 3 weeks of Summer Session or Summer Intensive weeks. Students enrolled in less are not eligible for summer private lessons in lieu of regular summer programming offerings.
BABC students must have accounts in good standing in order to schedule any private coaching.
