To enrol to preparatory dance school, which lasts for three years, a candidate does not need to take any entrance exams.
Classes from the preparatory school onwards take place on two levels: basic and more advanced, intended for students who wish to continue with their dance studies at the secondary level.
Students enrolling in the first class of ballet and contemporary dance need to be at least six years old, they have to pass the entrance aptitude test, which determines the suitability of applicants in terms of physical condition and an anatomical structure suited to the demands of classical dance. The candidates also need to demonstrate their rhythmic aptitude and instinct for movement.
