RDC INTRODUCES ABT NATIONAL TRAINING CURRICULUM 

RDC is always trying to enhance our programs for the benefit of our students.  We are very excited to announce that Ms. Kelly Alvarez, RDC's co-Ballet Director, has become an ABT® Certified Teacher.  She just successfully completed the ABT® Teacher Training Intensive in Pre-Primary through Level 5 of the ABT® National Training Curriculum.  
 
As a result, Revolution Dance Center is proud to include the AMERICAN BALLET THEATRE® National Training Curriculum, a breakthrough 9 level program that combines high quality artistic training with the basics of dancer health and child development, as an integral part of RDC's technical curriculum.  The ABT® National Training Curriculum consists of a comprehensive set of age-appropriate, outcome-based guidelines to provide the highest quality ballet training to dance students of all ages and skill levels.  Incorporating the ABT® National Training Curriculum will provide our dancers with the very best in ballet education for the recreational to intensive student.  Ms. Kelly will be training our ballet staff, and providing on-going supervision and continuing training to ensure that the ABT® National Training Curriculum is implemented correctly.
 
RDC will be rolling out our new ballet program in School Year 2016/2017 so a few things will be changing on our schedule and our existing program.  First, the names of RDC's ballet classes will be updated to follow the ABT® National Training Curriculum.  Second, RDC's ballet dress code will be modified to allow RDC's students to execute the curriculum in the best possible way.  Please review the below chart to see the exciting changes coming to RDC's ballet program.

ALL LEOTARDS, SKIRTS, TIGHTS & SHOES as well as other dance accessories are available at the RDC Store - located at 2287 Honolulu Avenue (in the Main Studio)
