Indianapolis School of Ballet

Indianapolis School of Ballet

The Indianapolis School of Ballet – the official school of Indianapolis Ballet – continues to serve as Indiana’s premiere destination for professional dance instruction.  The internationally respected faculty and artistic staff – guided by Victoria Lyras, Founding Artistic Director of both the School and professional company – are dedicated to meeting the needs of their students and offering them exemplary training, inspiration, and encouragement. ISB’s philosophy is that all students – whether they are professional aspirants, pre-schoolers or adults exploring the joys of dancing – will have the opportunity to reach their desired level of achievement.

The Indianapolis School of Ballet’s 36-week Fall/Spring school year offers three main programs: the Pre-Professional Program, the Young Children’s Program, the Open Dance Program, and the Professional Level Program. In addition, the Summer Intensive, scheduled from mid-June to late July, offers various multi-week options for students of all ages and levels.

Young Children's Program

Program description

Classes for boys and girls, ages 4 to 7

Designed to spark innate creativity and build a foundation for more in-depth technical training

The Young Children’s program is divided into Creative Movement and Pre-Ballet. These classes are a prelude to formal ballet instruction and introduce children to music and movement through an imaginative progression that encourages creativity, rhythmic awareness, and self-expression.

 

Classes meet once per week throughout the school year. Classes conclude with the annual “May We Dance” Showcase.
