New Ballet Ensemble and School

About

We build community, bringing together children from all backgrounds by providing a professional standard of training, regardless of ability to pay.

Story

Founded as a non profit in 2003, and active in the community since 2001, New Ballet has raised children in a highly professional environment with excellence in training to earn scholarships in major dance departments in higher education, including NYU Tisch, U of Ga, U of OK, Ball State, Boston Conservatory, Baylor, Goucher, Richmond, Butler, Vanderbilt, Columbia College Chicago and more. Educational programs in Title 1 urban and rural schools as well as community venues serve tens of thousands annually. The Orange Mound program includes residency in Dunbar Elementary, a "striving school" and is funded privately. Students train three times per week to fast track into the NBE core program on scholarships.
