Communication is improving every day! This past year has been amazing in the communication between ABS and myself. My emails are always answered quickly with an email or a phone call. As the school is small, to accommodate extra events etc sometimes the schedule has to be adjusted, but you are always notified of these adjustments via email in advance and you can check the google calendar on the website to make sure of the schedule for that day. The ABS faculty and staff work hard to ensure that communication between the dancer, parents, and the school remains effective. The main mode of communication is email, with the staff constantly emailing you about scheduling updates, upcoming performances, and even volunteer opportunities! As long as you check your email (and gave it to them correctly), you will stay informed. Again, the website is also updated regularly. The facebook page is also utilized effectively making it easy for my dancer to share what she is doing at ABS w/ everyone!!

Hello! As a dancer looking to improve his technique, I can not speak more highly of America's Ballet School. They offer a variety of levels so for those who are just beginning to learn should not be discouraged! Classes range from levels for beginners and hobbyists to levels for those on the track to becoming professionals! The faculty and staff at the school are very personable and make taking class all the more enjoyable. It is very much a family atmosphere, and the instructors are all there to help you become a better dancer. Each dancer's body and needs vary, but the instructors are committed to conveying proper classical ballet technique that enables a dancer to maximize his capabilities. I have been taking classes at ABS for over a year now and I feel very fortunate to be a part of such a great school. I started in the Adult Intermediate classes before moving into the school's Intermediate level. I was reserved at first, but with the support of ABS, I have grown more confident.

America's Ballet School has been voted the BEST BALLET SCHOOL for THREE years in a row. Five of their students placed in the top three at the Youth American Grand Prix and eight students were in the top twelve. They have four students that have been invited to attend the prestigious and highly competitve American Ballet School of New York. Artistic Director, Paula Nunez, was a Prima Ballerina at the age of 14 for the Venezuelan National Touring Company. This year one of her students was invited to audition for Billy Elliot. He is a finalist and awaiting reply.

DETAILS
General Info
Classical Ballet is a performing art that enriches our spirits. Communicating through movement, and the evocative language of ballet to express yourself, is a wondrously and original experience. Classical Dance style was handed down from Jean Georges Noverre through Carlo Blasis to Enricco Cecchetti ( Italian School ) and from Noverre through Johansson and August Bournonville to Gerdt and Legat ( French School ). Also the terms ballet and classical dance refers to the carefully studied analysis by Vaganova who is best remembered for her pioneering work in establishing the world-famous Soviet ballet syllabus. The renowned virtuosity of twentieth-century Russian ballet dancers is directly attributable to the system she created.The syllabus of America 's Ballet School is based on the classical Russian tradition and is enhanced by contemporary dance forms and ideas, to enrich the life of our young dancers by providing great teachers, choreographers and professional performing opportunities that will leave them with wonderful memories for years to come.ABS as a professional Ballet School concentrates on classical curriculum until the fundamentals have become solidly fixed within the muscle memory of the nervous system. Our goal is to establish a foundation of solid, secure ballet technique.The opportunity to watch and share the stage with professional ballet dancers gives the students the inspiration needed to sustain years of training. One valuable aspect of studying at ABS is the opportunity to gain stage experience in works created specially for them. Performing improves coordination and sharpens one's mind; it also instills confidence, discipline and determination.Parents are a very important part of our School and are encouraged to become involved. We couldn't accomplish it all without wonderful volunteers, supporters, and financial sponsors. ABS has an open door policy and parents may contact the school with any question they may have. Thanks to all of you who help make the school possible.We HOPE our dance program always encourages you the best efforts, brings you much happiness and a lifelong appreciation of this beautiful and exciting art form. We are looking forward to working with you in hopes of making this year not only enjoyable but a meaningful learning experience in a positive environment and a constructive working atmosphere. Students who learn early that focused and persistent efforts bring noticeable improvement and rewards in life, will develop an optimistic conviction that all goals are attainable.
