The Junior cycle is the first cycle to the professional program in classical dance performance. It emphasizes excellence, a glimpse of self-transcendence and pleasure in movement.
Classes take place after school, starting at 4:30 pm, and Saturdays.

An assessment is conducted each year, the student must meet set objectives and comply with established requirements to be promoted to the next level or to continue on to the Intermediate cycle. Otherwise, the student can opt to continue to dance in the recreational program.
