ABOUT THE CECCHETTI METHOD

The Cecchetti method is a system of training in Classical Ballet designed strictly upon the laws of anatomy and stresses two essential ingredients – technical and artistic development in a dancer and a sensitive, musical response to all movements.

Cecchetti principles of classical dance are contained in the Method, which imbues the dancer with simplicity of style, purity of line and a notable musicality and theatricality.

The Cecchetti Society of Southern Africa was founded in 1928 and is affiliated to the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing (ISTD), London.

The Cecchetti Society of Southern Africa is a founding corporate member of Cecchetti International Classical Ballet.
