Is there any ballet schools in Italy that have a good pre-professional backround? If so, do they have a website?
Viviane
The most wellknown are :
"Scuola di ballo del Teatro dell'Opera di Roma " in Rome, and "Scuola di ballo del Teatro alla Scala" in Milan.
Don't know of a website though and don't expect it to have an English translation !
You always can ask on the most known Italian balletwebsite runned by a group of balletdancers from La Scala : http://www.balletto.net

A word of caution, though; I had a friend who was a dancer for a major Italian opera company, and they were on strike so often, or honoring another picket line, that she had to quit in order to be able to dance more.
