Master Classes

Master classes are now available at the famed Mariinsky Theater in St. Petersburg, and are taught by the world's top ballet instructors. Any aspiring ballerina or dancer would be thrilled to take classes where such famous superstars of ballet as Pavlova, Nureyev, and Baryshnikov studied. The classes themselves are not all you'll get, however; the students will get to see all the historic and artistic sites in St. Petersburg, and become one hundred percent immersed in the arts and Russian culture.

Saint Petersburg is to the world of ballet what Hollywood is to movies. For the past two and a half centuries, Saint Petersburg has produced more top composers and dancers than probably any other city. Any professional dancer or even amateur ballerina could benefit so much by studying where the great masters once did.

Of course, the master classes are only part of the whole package. Students get to stay in St. Petersburg for eleven nights, attend ballets and other cultural events, and dine at world famous and historic restaurants. This is one "school" any student will cherish forever. As a gift, this trip could be the best possible thing you could get for that aspiring dancer or ballerina.
