NEW Music Classes

Russian Academy of Ballet is proud to present the new music program that will include lessons in piano, guitar, bass, mandolin, voice, and violin.

Our goal is to introduce and bring together the arts in Central Florida and offer children opportunities to play live music during local events, fundraisers, annual recitals, and special concerts. The music program is available to all levels, from beginners to advanced, regardless of your participation at the Russian Academy of Ballet dance program. Through this program students will grow as musicians and receive quality training from the best musicians in town. The program will open doors into various performing stages of Orlando, including musical events, concerts, and orchestras.

In Russian Ballet schools music is a must for every dancer.  It helps to develop musicality, timing, and rhythm that inspires students to become more emotional and dramatic performers.

Unlike majority of music schools, Russian Academy of Ballet will ensure multiple performing opportunities for young musicians to master the instrument on stage in professional productions throughout Orlando.

NEW Flamenco Classes

Russian Academy of Ballet now hosts Flamenco classes for children and adults by Flamenco De Perfil.

What is Flamenco? It is a passionate art form that originated in the region of Andalucia, Spain, noted for its energetic, deep and meaningful style approximately in the 18th century. It is accompanied by “cante” (singing), “toque” (guitar playing), dance, and “palmas” (hand clapping), which are essential components for flamenco.

The classes are taught by two professional flamenco dancers, Martha Cardenas-Romero and Ely Cardenal “La Salerita.”
“Two different profiles, two innovative and refreshing styles come together to bring you an exciting and energetic flamenco experience, leading you to its most inner secrets,  unleashing the soul and passion for flamenco.”
Together, Martha and Ely convey a different perspective and a new way of shaping this type of dance form as part of a wellness and fitness program. They have come up with a ground-breaking dance series that allow everyone to get involved, but, most importantly, a fun and pleasant environment you can relate to and share the passion for dance.

For information on prices, questions, schedule, and classes available, please visit Flamenco De Perfil website. Classes start February 7th, 2012 at Russian Academy of Ballet Studio at 421 North Bumby Ave, Orlando, FL 32803.

Music Program Details

The Music Program will offer lessons in guitar, bass, piano, voice, mandolin, and violin for all levels by professional music players and instructors with over 25 years of experience in teaching and playing: Brian Chodorcoff and Beth Meadows.

Lesson Scheduling
Lessons are available up to 5 days a week in 45 minute time slots and are scheduled weekly at established times during the day or evening Monday through Sunday. We can help you find a time and day that works for your schedule. To find out about time slots available, please email or call us at 407-896-0309.

For ballet students at Russian Academy, there will be no additional registration fee for music lessons. For those who do not have instruments, we will have free rental options to use the instruments for the first month of learning.

Monthly Fees
The music program will be based on a month to month commitment. Payment is due on a monthly basis at the first lesson of the month. If a student begins lessons in the middle of the month we will prorate for the number of lessons before the beginning of the first full month. Tuition for music lessons is $30 for an individual class of 45 minutes, $108 per month for 1 lesson a week and $218 per month for 2 lessons a week.

Cancellation Policy
We require one month in advance written notice to discontinue lessons. Please complete our “Notice to Withdraw” form available at the front desk of the school. If for example, you plan to discontinue/suspend lessons in May, then we will need to receive your written notice by the first lesson in April. If no notice is given by the first lesson of the month before lessons are being discontinued/suspend, then the student/parent will be responsible for the next full month’s tuition, no exceptions.

Late Fees:
We have a late payment fee policy of $15. If payment is not received by the second lesson of the month it is considered late and the fee will automatically be applied, no exceptions. It is the students/parents’ responsibility to ensure timely payment for music lessons; we will also be sending monthly reminders about due tuition for your convenience.

Returned Checks: There is a $20 Fee for any returned checks, in addition to any additional bank charges that we incur.

Missed Lessons and Make-Up Policy
If you cannot take the time(s) offered or if there are no times available, you will need to check in with the teacher during the next week’s lesson to discuss the make up directly with the teacher. In order to be considered for a Courtesy Make Up Lesson, the student or parent must call/e-mail the school at least 24 hours in advance if a known absence is coming, or ASAP, if a last minute unforeseen illness/accident/emergency comes up. If you do not call in advance, you will forfeit the lesson, no exceptions. Once a Courtesy Make Up Lesson has been scheduled, no additional lesson will be offered if you cancel the scheduled Make Up Lesson for any reason. Lessons for any teacher absence, will be covered either by a Substitute on the regular lesson day, or your teacher will make arrangements to do a pre, or post make up with each student.

For questions and enrollment, please email or call us at 407-896-0309. Please include information about your/your child’s age, experience, and contact information.
