Pre-Professional Program

BCB’s Pre-Professional Program is a classical ballet training program for students who wish to pursue serious ballet training. This is considered to be a year-round program, as students enroll at the beginning of each school year and are encouraged to attend BCB’s Summer Workshop. 

Pre-Professional Program students are expected to attend all of their scheduled classes and rehearsals and have the opportunity to perform in BCB’s annual Nutcracker and Spring Concert performances. 

BCB students are accepted into summer intensive programs at widely recognized schools such as San Francisco Ballet School, Alvin Ailey, American Ballet Theater, Boston Ballet, Joffrey Ballet, and many more.

BCB Alumni have been accepted to and attended some of the nation’s top university dance programs, such as SUNY Purchase, UC Irvine, Alvin Ailey/Fordham University, Butler University, and University of Utah.

Students must be at least age 7 or entering 2nd grade in the fall in order to enroll in the Pre-Professional Program. Entrance into the Ballet 2 and up is by invitation only.
