Saturday Late Statute

Saturday Late Statute

There is no late in ballet. There is no arriving late to class, no being late on the music and no being late on entrances or exits. No being late at all.

Now, there are - rarely- instances where a dancer is late and it is unavoidable: A traffic accident, a weather event or some similar rare –emphasis on rare – occurrence.

Being late to class is a big no-no. Depending on the school, the dancer may be asked to quietly enter the room so as not to disturb the rest of the class, or she may not be allowed to take class at all. If a dancer is habitually late, it could be a cause for dismissal from the program entirely.

There is no late in ballet.

From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Secret #79:
“There is no “late” in ballet.”
