Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT) Advanced Student workshop held by the founder & creator of the program, Marie Walton-Mahon.

The Advanced workshop is for students over the age of 15 who have a background of dance training or have attended dance classes before. The Progressing Ballet Technique student workshop is a structured Master Class where the students will cover all the fundamental exercises in the Advanced Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT) program.

The students will leave the classroom with a comprehensive understanding of what muscles are activated for each student to enhance their personal best in training.

Marie Walton-Mahon (the founder & creator of Progressing Ballet Technique) will explain carefully each exercise and the students will be encouraged to ask questions and discuss what they are feeling in their bodies. In the end, the students will understand how exercise by repetition to music will eventually build the correct movement patterns to transfer into the classroom and receive a participation certificate.
