Le Bal Impérial®

est l’un des plus beaux galas parisiens. C’est pour rendre hommage à Napoléon III qui, en 1861, accorda la reconnaissance d’utilité publique à l’Œuvre des Saints Anges que sa présidente, la Baronne de Saint Didier, organise tous les ans un gala de bienfaisance sur le thème du Second Empire. 

Fondé en 1844, l’Œuvre des Saints Anges® est une institution laïque qui continue encore aujourd’hui l’action éducative et bienfaitrice voulue par ses fondateurs. Son objet social : éduquer, instruire et faciliter l’accès à la culture et au monde du travail. Les manifestations de bienfaisance qu’elle organise contribuent au financement des activités éducatives et culturelles en faveur des enfants et des jeunes.

Main course levels

Beginners 23-29 June
Whether you are a dancer or a dance student new to the genre, a singer, musician, actor or other, this is the opportunity to get a thorough introduction to the world of baroque dance. For the ‘beginners level’ you do not need any previous experience of the genre. However, we expect you to be a mover with a general dance experience, be in good shape, be used to regular physical activity, and to possess good general body awareness. Please be aware that baroque dance is no less demanding than most other dance forms, and typically puts a lot of strain on feet, calves and core muscles.

Intermediate 23-29 June
​This level is aimed at dancers, dance students and dance teachers with a basic knowledge of the baroque dance vocabulary, as well as non-professional dancers with solid baroque dance experience.

Advanced 7-13 July
​To the advanced level we welcome professionally trained dancers, dance students and dance teachers with a thorough knowledge of the baroque dance vocabulary. Please note that we ask for a short CV if you register for this level.

Professional 7-13 July
​This level is aimed at professional dancers with a professional baroque dance experience. Please note that we ask for a short CV, as well as a link to a video sample of a stage performance, if you register for the professional level.

Registration

The places to the Summer Academy are released in two rounds: half on 15 January and half on 15 April. If a course gets full after the second release on 15 April, we will set up a waiting list.
