What are ballet examinations?

Cecchetti exams are available each year though a student does not always take an exam each year. They are geared for individual growth beginning at the Primary level with completion at the Advanced level which would enable a dancer to start the audition process into a ballet company. Determining whether your dancer will do an exam on a given year is related to how many classes they took starting in September. The final decision of examination eligibility is at 

the discretion of the teacher.
