Quotes
"No student should have to compromise their education for their ballet training. We know that studying away from home can be a big step, and we’re here to support you every step of the way. Everyone at Alberta Ballet School is working together to create a nurturing and welcoming environment where students can thrive, artistically and academically."
Ashley McNeil, Director, Alberta Ballet School
“Without a company, a ballet school has no dream. Without a school, a ballet company has no foundation. This cycle of aspiration and inspiration is the beating heart of our art form.”
Francesco Ventriglia, Artistic Director Alberta Ballet Company
