Pre-Professional Program

Serious ballet training with the finest professional instructors in a nurturing and respectful environment is the hallmark of the BalletNova pre-professional program.

Our Junior through Conservatory Divisions offer intensive pre-professional ballet training that prepares young dancers for professional careers should they choose that path. Our philosophy of teaching focuses on building not only technical strength and artistic excellence but also confidence and self-esteem. Our curriculum incorporates elements from a variety of training methods and techniques.

Classical Ballet is emphasized at BNCD because we believe that a strong ballet technique is a necessary foundation for all dance genres.

BalletNova begins students in the Pre-Professional program starting at age 8 with our Junior Division. Dancers who successfully complete the Junior Division are promoted to the Conservatory Divisions. 

Admission to the Pre-Professional Program is by audition only. Outside students should register for one of the fall placement audition classes below:
