Interventions

PROCEDURE

Balett Training

The ballet training will happen twice a week for six weeks, with each session lasting 60 minutes, for a total of 12 sessions. These sessions will be held in groups of 10 to 12 children and led by experienced ballet teachers. The classes will follow a beginner-level ballet routine, introducing the kids to ballet techniques in a fun and playful way, making sure they learn the movements step by step. Each lesson will follow the same structure, allowing the children to improve their skills week after week. In addition to the group sessions, the children will be given a 10-minute daily home exercise program. This will include simple ballet exercises they learned in their first class, which they should practice on the five days when they don't have ballet sessions. The children will track their practice in a child-friendly diary designed just for them.
