Students learn the principles of Classical Ballet as it has been developed in the Russian Imperial School. With a conservatory style approach, Lumiere Ballet is the only Center of its kind where students develop cohesively and rapidly under the direction of their 'in-house' master teachers. Svetlana Caton-Noble and Venti Petrov create a rich educational and artistic environment. They continue to provide performing opportunities with a broad classical and contemporary repertoire. They build a cultural development that cannot be found anywhere else in the country for students ages 9 to 18. Female students have a coveted advantage as partnering lessons with a world class dancer and experienced partner are available to them. Male students have the sought after opportunity to receive specific training and partnering skills. In the course of the summer, prominent guest teachers are invited and special workshops are also offered in music, acting, history and stage manners.
All students begin the daily practice together with stretching exercises, then with traditional Barre and Center. Students are divided in groups to work with Venti Petrov on the more difficult allegro combinations and with Svetlana Caton-Noble on point and female variations. In the afternoon the two groups alternate with rehearsals, partnering and related workshops. Much of the afternoon is devoted to rehearsals for the Annual Summer Gala when the students must perform to professional standards and share the stage with professional artists.
