Welcome to the Junior Masterclasses for Summer 2027.

International Ballet Masterclasses in Prague are very pleased to be able to announce the fifth year for junior students, aged 13-15 years old, led by the world famous Prima Ballerina and ex Royal Ballet School teacher, Daria Klimentová. We are yet to confirm who will be joining us in 2027.

The dates for 2027 will be from the 2nd -6th August 2027 inclusive.

The classes will be held at the same studios as the main Masterclasses, the home of the Czech National Ballet, at Anenske Namesti 2, Prague 1, 110 00, CZ.

We will not be organising accommodation for the students and they will have to be accompanied in Prague by their parents or guardian. However we can recommend places to stay should you wish.

Students should be brought to the studios from 9am each morning. For lunch times we have a subsidised canteen on site where parents are welcome to join the dancers for something to eat each day (this was very popular last summer) or they can be collected and taken out for lunch. Students will also have to be collected by 5pm at the end of each day.

The days will be structured as follows: 10.00-11.30 General Class

12.00-13.15 Boys Variation

12.00-14.00 Girls variation (two groups one hour each group)

15.00-16.30 Girls and Boys repertoire / Contemporary (alternate days)

The price of the course is £750.00 (seven hundred and fifty pounds sterling) or €900.00 (nine hundred euro).

Places for the course are limited so try to apply early.

To apply fill out the below form please, and submit with a good photograph, preferably in 1st Arabesque.
