Cincinnati Ballet’s CincyDance!

• Ballet Foundations Demonstration: Join us!
• Each fall, professional faculty from Cincinnati Ballet will provide six-week dance workshops for third grade students at selected schools in the Greater Cincinnati area. Through these weekly one-hour presentations students will be introduced to dance basics, specifically ballet.  A selected group of students who show a strong interest and natural aptitude for dance will be invited to attend the Ballet Foundations program at Cincinnati Ballet Otto M. Budig Academy.    

• Ballet Foundations includes a tuition-free, 20-week program designed specifically for those students chosen from the First Steps Residency portion of CincyDance! (approximately five students from each school will go on to participate in Ballet Foundations). Hour-long classes consist of ballet supplemented by other dance disciplines, including modern, jazz and hip-hop. Classes are held at Cincinnati Ballet Center Downtown Studios.
• Students participating in Ballet Foundations are supplied with adequate ballet attire including leotards, tights and ballet shoes. 

Cincinnati Ballet Otto M. Budig Academy Experience

Students chosen by Cincinnati Ballet Academy staff may continue full-time dance training through the Cincinnati Ballet Otto M. Budig Academy Experience with scholarships awarded on a basis of financial need and merit. At this point students may attend Cincinnati Ballet Academy classes at the studio location that is most convenient for their families: Downtown Cincinnati or Blue Ash.
