No you don't have to complete Grade 5 ballet to do Intermediate Foundation, you don't even have to be in Grade 5. Hope this helps!
Elementary ballet is a grade in ballet, It ranges from Pre-primary, primary, grade 1 , Grade 2, Grade 3, Grade 4, Grade 5. They are the Junior years. Then it goes Pre-Elementary/Intermediate foundation, Elementary/Intermediate, Advanced Foundation, Advanced Foundation 1, Advanced Foundation 2. These are the senior years.
Grade 5 is simply a grade in Ballet, like year 5 in school. You don't necessarily have to complete it, I didn't, to get to the next grade, Intermediate Foundation.
The ballet grades are (in order from low to high) - Pre-Syllabus - Pre-School - Pre-Primary - Primary - Grade 1 - Grade 2 - Grade 3 - Grade 4 - Grade 5 - Grade 6 - Grade 7 - Intermediate-Foundation - Intermediate - Advanced 1 - Advanced 2 (after grade 5, you can skip straight to Intermediate-Foundation, if ready for pointe)
There are 8 ballet grades but there is also pointe work in grade 5 and up (although some start in grade 4), so if some one asks you, you could say that there are 8 or 12 because when you are in grade 5 up you have the poite work exams as well. The Pointe work levels are: Intermediate Foundation Intermediate Advanced Foundation Advanced 1 Advanced 2

Vocational ballet refers to a specialized form of ballet training that focuses on preparing students for a professional career in ballet. This training typically includes intensive classes in ballet technique, pointe work, variations, pas de deux, and other aspects of classical ballet. Vocational ballet programs often have a structured curriculum designed to develop the skills and artistry required for a successful career in ballet. Students in vocational ballet programs may also have opportunities to perform in productions and participate in competitions to further their training and experience.
there are 5 positons in ballet
I am on pointes and I am twelve. I'm in grade 5 ballet. But i do an extra class called Inter Foundation, which helped us to get enough strength to go on pointe in Grade 4. So you should probably wait until either your teacher says or until you are in Grade 5/6
Royal Ballet School Bolshoi Ballet School Kirov Ballet School Paris Opera Ballet School School of American Ballet
* Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet * School of American Ballet * San Francisco Ballet School * Pacific Northwest Ballet School * Boston Ballet School
Level 5 in ballet is a advanced level you can get stronger in. In ballet 1 you learn the basics. In ballet 2 you learn more steps but still not to advanced. In ballet 3 you learn some more steps and get a little more advanced. In ballet 4 you get stronger and more steps and at that point your feet get stronger and when your feet are strong enough your teacher decides if you go up on pointe or not yet. After 3 or 4 years in ballet 4 you go to ballet 5. ballet 5 is a very advanced class and is the highest level you can get to!
