"Thanks for teaching me to be more outstanding, and show off my personality." -- Diamond, 4th grade.

 

"When I first came to your class I said, 'Her class is going to be boring,' but now I know how to do a plié, a tendu, a passé, and an échappé! I just like doing ballet." -- Doneca, 6th grade.
  • Field trips to our Mickey Jarson Kaplan Performance Studio in the Cincinnati Ballet Center
  • Participation in CincyDance!, a program providing free dance classes and dance attire to young people with no previous formal dance training.
  • On-site performances at your school

Students and adults alike gain a greater understanding of ballet as an art form and experience of the joy of dance on multiple levels.

Cincinnati Ballet’s education and outreach programming is designed to coincide with teacher’s classroom curriculum, provide aid with proficiency testing, and all of our programs meet the national and state standards for arts education. 

According to the state of the Arts Report 2001, prepared by the Ohio Arts Council, "Research demonstrates that exposure to the arts will improve a child’s creativity, self-esteem, and overall capacity for learning."
