Achieving the level of artistic excellence to succeed in the dance world takes years of practiced dedication, along with an intangible combination of physicality, mental outlook, and creative expression.

Master teacher Edward Ellison has crafted an intensive study program to meet the needs of gifted ballet students from around the world who wish to dance professionally. Both the Summer Intensive and the in-depth Professional Training Program offer a stepping stone approach to realize new levels of achievement.

The classes emphasize development of strong classical ballet technique, the exploration and discovery of the student’s full artistic potential, and highly individualized attention from a world-class faculty.

“The study of ballet is a balance of science and poetry,” Mr. Ellison says. “In these programs, we work to achieve harmony of the physical, mental and spiritual. The successful technique is that which is infused with the power of the soul.”
