Nationally-Recognized Dance Program Ranked Best in the Country
Ballet concentration students learn from experienced faculty and artists who have studied and performed with major ballet schools and companies throughout the U.S. and abroad. Our students develop a solid foundation in classical ballet technique, along with classes in pointe, variations, ballet repertoire, and pas de deux. Performance opportunities include classical repertoire, and works by 20th century masters and contemporary ballet choreographers.
The full-time faculty have danced with professional ballet companies around the world, and guest artists and choreographers regularly come to campus to conduct master classes and workshops.
