City Ballet Raleigh’s goals are to build confidence and nurture a love of movement, music, and performance while training dancers through a structured syllabus that builds their technical expertise and their physical strength. To achieve this, a season with City Ballet Raleigh has a distinct pattern that seeks to accomplish these goals for dancers over the course of a dance year: - The fall is spent building technique for all students through various structured exercises. - Our full length, richly costumed and staged version of Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker Ballet in December provides a wonderful, professional performing opportunity for students. - Invited dancers participate in the UNCSA Festival of NC Dance. - Optional exams testing physical and academic knowledge of the Cecchetti Method are offered for selected students. - Our annual recital is a performing opportunity for all students in our dance programs. - Our summer program includes week-long intensive workshops in addition to evening drop-in classes offered in ballet, pointe, modern, tap and jazz.
