Audition Milano Contemporary Ballet training program 2024/2025

The international training program was created by Roberto Altamura, founder of Milano Contemporary Ballet and Milano City Ballet.
The program provides young dancers the necessary tools to complete their education and increase their potential, stimulating creativity and curiosity, working on each one’s personal quality and supporting in finding the most suitable path in the world of dance.

«Since 2015, our goal has been to offer our dancers a professionalizing experience that could direct them towards the world of work – claims Roberto Altamura – With this aim, we had different important collaborations: the re-stage of three repertoire works by Company Wayne McGregor, until 2018, and then the collaborations with companies like Vertigo Dance Company and Cie Hervé Koubi and with artists such as Raza Hammadi, Carolina Mancuso, Roser Lopez Espinosa, Yin Yue, Jiri Pokorny, Sandra Garcia and Jon Bond, among the others».

Milano Contemporary Ballet is not only a training program: it is a meeting point of cultures, languages, and experiences. Internationality characterizes our reality, where Italian, European and extra-European dancers meet. Besides, Milano Contemporary Ballet regularly hosts and collaborates with students coming from South Korea and Universities of Singapore.

THE TRAINING

The daily program, lasting 8 months, ranges from ballet technique, exploited with the goal of training contemporary dancers, to contemporary and modern techniques, floor work, partnering, choreographic composition and impro; besides this, the dancers regularly attend Pilates, biomechanics, anatomy, and movement analysis classes.
