Progressing Ballet Technique

Integrated into our Ballet classes for added class value!

Miss Gillian is Prince Albert's only trained PBT teacher for this fantastic program!

What is PBT?

"Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT) is an innovative body-conditioning and strengthening program developed by Marie Walton-Mahon for students to understand the depth of training muscle memory in achieving their personal best. One of the important elements used in the PBT method is muscle memory which helps to improve students' understanding of core stability, weight placement and alignment. Each exercise in the PBT program has been developed with care and guidance by Marie Walton-Mahon along with a team of physiotherapists."
