Lyrical classes are by invitation only and are geared toward the older and emotionally developing student.
There are 3 levels: Junior Lyrical (ages 11-12), Senior Lyrical (ages 12-14), and Contemporary (ages 14 and up).
Lyrical is not an actual technique but rather a quality of movement that calls on different styles and techniques. This class focuses on personal interpretation. The aim is for each individual to be in touch with their own special qualities to create a sincere, unforced performance, and a true artist. The dancer must develop and understand his/her own inner emotions to truly express the human soul. Lyrical classes tap into a variety of emotions and experiences. Lyrics of songs are sometimes interpreted; thus, it is important that students have a maturity that includes a wide emotional vocabulary and understanding, allowing for an age-appropriate expression of various themes important to the human experience. Students invited to this class need to have a strong ballet technique.
