The American Ballet Theatre is a company so they perform. Once a dancer is employed, they usually do not need to be'taught' too much anymore. Its just a matter of keeping their skills at a high level, for use on stage.The school attached to the American Ballet Theatre is a different question. To the best of my knowledge they teach a combination of techniques that include; Vaganova, Chechetti, RAD and other European styles such as Royal Danish.

Can you teach yourself to dance ballet on pointe and how?
No, you really cannot! It is dangerous and you need lots of ballet experience, and an experienced and talented ballet teacher to teach you. Please do not attempt to teach yourself, even if you have gathered lots of information!

How do you get a license of teacher of ballet?
You don't need a license to teach ballet. If you want to be a ballet teacher you need to have strong ballet technique, and good exprience. You need to understand that no ballet dancer should go en pointe befor teh age of 12 and what it takes to become a professional ballet dancer as many of your students may want to know this. receiving a B.F.A. in ballet for sure helps. What also helps is being a professional dancer, but this isn't required. Start out my finding a ballet school and contacting the school asking if they have jobs available. Create a good resume, too. Remember to always provide your ballet students with a challengng, but friendly atmosphere where they can improve. To be the best ballet teacher keep your dancers posted on their strengths and areas in need of improvemnet. Good luck!
Can you teach yourself ballet?
I do not think you can. There are so many things you can learn. All the words used in ballet are french so you would need to learn those words. You need to be able to point out the details used in ballet. For example, in jazz, when you do a pirohuette turn, your leg by your knee is parallel and in ballet it is turned out. In ballet you all ways use opposites too. Also, you need to learn all the positions. When you do a performance, you don't always smile too. So you probally could not teach yourself ballet.
How can I take ballet when I can't afford it?
If a friend or family member does ballet ask them to teach you some moves to practice at home. If not then look up some vidios on basic ballet moves until you can afford it. Good luck!
