Eglevsky Ballet desires to create an environment where students can thrive allowing for further development beyond the classroom. Additionally, our unparalleled professional faculty will be able to teach in an environment that is conducive to the rigors and demands of classical ballet. professional dancers, regisseurs, educators, and choreographers are also encouraged and challenged to breathe life into new and existing repertoire.
