Classes are six days a week, everyday has technique class. Wednesdays and Saturdays technique was preceded by pbt. Following was either pointe or variations/repertoire. Then the day ended with modern, jazz, character, or conditioning. There is also an option to sign up for a contemporary ensemble which allowed us to work with aspiring choreographers from Tulsa Ballet’s company.
