APBT © participants will learn how to teach the curriculum of Boston Ballet School’s Children’s Program.
Our Children’s Program, developed by LUCIANO AIMAR, Head of BBS Children’s Program, is based upon the culmination of dance therapy studies, early childhood education theories, and ballet as a technique.
While teaching students the fundamentals of creative movement such as utilizing our bodies in space and how music connects to cognitive growth, our students are also encouraged to explore their imagination.
Students progress through the Children’s Program before entering into our Classical Ballet Program (ages 8-18) This curriculum has been utilized in other institutions such as School of American Ballet (LITTLE DANCER CLASSES) and The Rock School (PRE-BALLET DIVISION).

10 months’ worth of age-appropriate detailed lesson plans for 7 different developmental levels of students Specific music playlist to accompany lesson plans Strategies to manage positive and negative behavior within a classroom setting Elevated confidence to present/create a supportive and inclusive environment for student Connection to Boston Ballet School and a network for APBT © certified teachers Flexibility to attend this certification program in-person, hybrid, or fully remote.
