The Bournonville technique is a ballet technique named after the Danish ballet master and choreographer August Bournonville.
Bournonville is a romantic style that strives for a flowing movement vocabulary, characterized by the abundant use of petit allegros, rapid footwork, and natural yet distinctive use of the head and arms.
In this course, we will explore both the Bournonville class series named after the days of the week and the repertoire itself, in the form of his most famous ballets.
