A 6 Class Pass is the equivalent of purchasing 6 individual ballet classes.  When you purchase a 6 Class Pass, you still must individually register for each class you wish to attend.

Purchasing this pass does not automatically register you for a series of 6 classes.

Class passes expire 60 days after the date of first use.

Due to the online nature of the Open Division classes, there are no refunds, returns, or exchanges on registrations. Once you have signed up for a class, you cannot switch that class to another date and time.

Registration for classes will open 14 days before the class and close one hour prior to the class’s start time. Please check back as additional classes with guest teachers may be offered!

You will receive an email from the ABT Open Division thirty minutes before your class with the Zoom link. Please note that all classes are listed in the Eastern Time Zone (US).

All our classes are listed in the Eastern Time Zone (US). Dancers are welcome to attend from all over the world but please make sure to note the time difference for your class.

These classes are designed for dancers in their homes, though dancers are welcome to join from a studio as well.  The classes will include barre work.  If do not have a barre, you are welcome to use a chair or countertop in your home. Please keep in mind the height and sturdiness of the barre or barre substitute.  We encourage dancers to modify exercises as necessary to make the best use of your dance space.

You are welcome to share a space with another dancer! However, we ask that each dancer register and pay for the class separately.

Dancers begin the day with a ballet conditioning class followed by a ballet technique class. There is a repertory workshop to explore sections of the ballet. The program concludes with a pre-performance talk and the performance. There will be a break in the day between the studio classes and theater portion.
