The school s approach to pedagogy fosters the coexistence of classical ballet, character, jazz and contemporary disciplines. We do believe in classical ballet training what helps to produce great dancers. One of the most satisfying aspects of our work at Academy of Int l Ballet is watching the development of our talented and young dedicated dancers. From students beginning steps in pre-ballet classes to their strong, explosive and beautiful mastery on stage. Our program has been designed to effectively prepare students for a career in dance. It s a thrill to witness discovery of their artistry and to see them carry these skills into the world. We look forward to sharing our work with you!
