This is RAD information.
Depending on what grade/level you are doing it varies.
The Grade Six-Eight syllabus is based around the romantic period and most exercises are done as a pair, with your partner.
Although the Major exams (such as Intermediate foundation, Intermediate, Advanced Foundation, Advanced One, Advanced Two and Solo Seal) are structured, but have feeling.
Hope that helps :)

Coachactually you can phrase the question as: how did romantic Ballet come out from classical ballet? as time went on, styles, fashions, etc changed. therefore the arts had to change as well. romantic ballet was the time in the 1800's when the costumes of the dancers were made more loose, thus allowing them more movement and easier. pointe work was made up and so was partner work. more challenging jumps and turns resulted as well. the idea of romantic was for the ballet to transport the audience into a world of fantasy. therefore the storylines turned "magical" and different as well. if you think about it, ballet and romantic ballet are very similar. it's called romantic ballet mainly because the 1800's was a time of great change for ballet.

What are the famuos romantic ballet shows?
Giselle is one of the most famous ballets. The ballet opens with Albrecht who is perusing Giselle, the attractive peasant girl. Albrecht goes on to lead Giselle to think that he is a farmer with the name of Loys who Giselle falls in love with. During this time she is unaware that the man is already betrothed to the daughter of the duke, Bathilde. She agrees to marry him despite Hilarion's, another peasant, romantic advancements and suspects that Albrecht is an imposter. Giselle wants to dance but is warned by her mother that she has a weak heart. Hilarion tells Giselle that Albrecht has been untruthful to her and that he is a nobleman in reality. Not long after, Bathilde reveals to Giselle that Albrecht is definitely her fiancé. Giselle is horrified, becomes weak, and soon dies of a broken heart. The second act starts in the setting of a forest at the side of Giselle's grave. The ghostly Wilis, virgins who died of unrequited love, are called upon by their queen to accept Giselle as one of their own. When Hilarion stops by the grave, the Wilis make him dance to his death. But when Albrecht arrives, Giselle, who has become a Wili herself, dances with him until the Wilis' power is lost, when the clock strikes four. It is then that Albrecht realizes that Giselle has saved him and he cries at her grave.
