Open Class

With a weekly Open Class the Vienna State Ballet offers professional dancers, dance teachers, and students as well as advanced amateurs (age 14 and above) the opportunity to take part in a top-class ballet training. Led by Martin Schläpfer, Louisa Rachedi, Samuel Colombet, Jean Christophe Lesage, Daniel Vizcayo and other members of the Vienna State Ballet the classical training takes place to live piano accompaniment.

Showers and changing rooms are available. Please come in comfortable clothing, slippers or socks and bring your own water bottle.

Furthermore, we ask you to check the current Covid-19 safety requirements on our website: https://www.wiener-staatsoper.at/en/service/covid-19-information/
