Intermediate foundation ballet?

Im 13 and im going to hopefully start ballet again after doing about 5 years of ballet and stoping for about 3 years.



My mum has just rung up a ballet school and they said i would be in a intermediate foundation class and possibly moving up to beginner pointe in a few terms, if i was up to speed.



I was just wondering what kind of moves you do in intermediate foundation, like what things are you required to be able to do.



Thanks, lots of info please. :)

pointe is included in intermediate foundation and to do with "moves" you have to wait and see..there are lots but you have to know that the exams for vocational grades are very hard and most people fail the first time

Typically intermediate involves most ballet steps integrated into combinations that are challenging to the dancer, but not overly difficult. Just remember (sry for spelling) plies, tendu, (petit and grand) battement, frappes, and basic jumps. Most things you can just watch the teacher and will pick right up. Good luck, have fun. I hope I helped ( :
Most intermediate classes involve barre that includes (sorry for the spelling) plies, tendus, randegams, frappes, degashes, batmas, and you will also work on strengthening your calves and ankles so it is easier to go on pointe. In center you will work on grade jetes, sodashas, piques, arebesques, gilesas, padashas, sutenues, and many other basic steps. But intermediate classes take it to the next level. The use the basic steps learned in beginning ballet, and put them into intricate combinations across the floor, using transitional steps like tombe pada bou rae to make it flow. The main goal of the class is to master the basics so when you go on demi point (beginning pointe) it will be very easy for you, and you can learn harder steps like fortes and Italian fortes. I'm sure you'll do very well! Good Luck! :)
Dancers at this level already have developed a basic foundation of the steps used in ballet such as the plie and fondu. At the intermediate level the ballet master is able to work more with arm movement and combination moves away from the ballet barre. You will also start some pre-pointe work which are simply strenghthing exercises to prepare you to dance in pointe shoes.
I'm also 13, and in Ballet, Grade 5 and En Pointe. Stopping ballet for three years..You may find yourself quite behind...Especially for Int.Foundation.



Pointe is quite hard you might need to take a year of Ballet again, before getting back into it.



Int.Foundation is much like Grade 5 Exam, and most moves are basic.
