International Ballet School

A miracle in Highlands Ranch! For the serious ballet student just starting out, this is the place. No recitals - but the International Youth Ballet Company associated with the school gives two performances per year at the Newman Center, of 100% professional quality with full sets, costumes, and hired male professionals (as always, a lack of interested boys is a problem). This is not a place for dabbling! Their purpose is to train professional ballet dancers. The instructors have decades of experience in European venues. They are patient but firm, professional but approachable. The school has been featured in "Pointe" Magazine as "one of the 7 best schools you never heard of."
