The Yen Han Dance Center is proud to offer a full professional program to its students.
The school provides all of its students with a strong ballet foundation from a young age. All classes are designed to build upon each other and students progress through the levels while consistently building their proficiency in ballet. Students who possess the aptitude and the interest can then audition to join the professional program which offers unique possibilities to further their training.
The high-quality professional training program encompasses all aspects required to build an impressive skillset as a dancer. On the one hand, the school is affiliated with the Kunst und Sport (K+S) Gymnasium of the Canton of Zurich. In addition, the Yen Han Dance Center also welcomes students intending to embark on a professional dance career - but who are not part of the K+S program - to audition to join its professional classes.
Furthermore, by virtue of being associated with the Yen Han Ballet Company, a company with far-reaching national and international perspectives, numerous opportunities are available to students that would otherwise not be found in a ballet school. An annual performance schedule will allow the students to hone their skills on stage. Performances will include pieces choreographed especially for our students as well as further pieces from a general repertoire.
After having completed the Yen Han Dance Center professional program, students will have been trained in all areas of classical dance and be prepared to audition for and be accepted into dance companies around the world. Students possessing the necessary technique, skills and aptitude may audition for the Yen Han Ballet Company. Being accepted into this prestigious ballet company will allow them to move seamlessly from their training into beginning their professional careers.
We look forward to welcoming you all again from May 11th!

Due to the extension of the shutdown, we continue to offer free ballet class videos online. There are also free live classes from Monday to Friday.
