The Conservatoire prepares its students to reach a very high level of practice. Dance classes are the central element in the training of dancers, but they also need to enrich their practice with other disciplines.

Physical preparation is part of this and will focus on two aspects: the quest for physical performance and injury prevention in order to preserve their physical integrity.

This is all the more important when working with growing bodies. Dancers' specialisation begins very early on. At a very young age, they are required to repeat specific movements over a large volume of classes.

If you want to dance for a long time and be in good physical and mental health, the Conservatoire offers physical preparation tailored to your technical, physical and physiological level. This discipline will work closely with the teachers and the health centre to ensure that it is as adapted as possible to the demands of dance.

We cover a range of topics, including warm-ups, recovery and the organisation of work throughout the year and during the holidays.

The aim is to support the students as early as possible so that they integrate routines into their work at a very early stage. The earlier this work is done, the easier it is to integrate effectively into professional practice because it will have been tested and understood.

Physical preparation is covered in dedicated lessons but can also be integrated into general training outside lessons at the request of teachers or students.

It must respect the overall workload and allow time for recovery.

We aim to develop qualities such as cardio-respiratory endurance, strength, power, flexibility and coordination.

Through an in-depth understanding of works from the 18th century to the present day, Music Analysis B enables performers to put their artistic practice into perspective, and to forge the singularity of their interpretation. As well as acquiring theoretical knowledge and studying works in depth, they consolidate their learning of the main analytical methodologies specific to the repertoire studied. In this way, they acquire mastery of an analytical and stylistic discourse.
