What we do
JSB’s Mission
Our mission is to provide the highest level of artistic and technical training in classical ballet, as we foster the arts and develop the lifelong skills of hard work, dedication and reliability. Every student in the school is trained with a solid foundation in technique so that upon graduation from high school they are prepared for further professional work in the dance world. Many of the faculty today are products of the ballet school. It is our goal to continually provide the very best selection of instructors, who will carry on our traditional methods for many years to come.
“When I have a room full of students, I have every possibility.” – Jacqueline Colledge
