Customised Paths
For each one according to physical/gymnastic peculiarities and age
The presence of the Kataklò Company at the same Academy location allows the student to witness the creation of the vast choreographic repertoire up close, to learn about the daily professional reality of a dance company, and to be able to study the company’s repertoire guided by the dancers and the Director.
For each pupil, customization of the course of study is possible according to physical/gymnastic peculiarities and age: both special reduced programs are prepared for younger talents approaching the academic professional path, and advanced program for older pupils with previous professional experience.
Thanks to the many collaborations that Accademia Kataklò has created over the past ten years and renews annually, all students have the opportunity to participate in various performance activities, respecting their level of training. The most deserving talents are involved in extracurricular professional start-up experiences and Kataklò company events.
