Question:

Ballet school?

Okay so I want to pursue a ballet future and I know it will be a hard future,
Do any of you know of any dance school scholarships specifically ballet?
and do you know of any ballet or performing arts schools...EX- Juilliard, ABT,NYC ballet???
they don't actually have to be major schools but...


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Juilliard is a college program that offers a BFA and it's more of a modern-based program, although they offer excellent ballet instruction as well. ABT and NYCB are companies that don't really have their own schools, although SAB is the recognized "feeder" school to the NYCB.

So are you looking for a "pre-professional" ballet school (like SAB) or a college program? Either way, all programs would offer their own scholarships and are given to the most talented dancers on the basis of their auditions.

Also buy the December and January issues of Dance Magazine, as audition season for all the programs is coming up, starting in January. Review all the ads in the magazines for the schedules of audition tours.
