Ballet School New York
Teaching the Cecchetti syllabus
Ballet School NY (BSNY) was founded by artistic director Diana Byer in 1978 as the official training school of New York Theatre Ballet. Graded classes are offered at the pre-ballet through advanced levels.
The school teaches dance as a total art form, developing strong technical skill and discipline. Following the Cecchetti syllabus, classes emphasize music, theatricality, gesture and style. Well-trained Cecchetti dancers have purity of line and simplicity of style which enables them to take their place in dance companies throughout the world.
For qualified students, the school’s unique relationship with the Company provides performing experience throughout the year in ballets featuring roles for children.
CLASSES ARE GIVEN CONTINUOUSLY THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. THE SCHOOL IS CLOSED FOR ALL NATIONAL HOLIDAYS. BALLET SCHOOL NY IS AUTHORIZED UNDER FEDERAL LAW TO ENROLL NON-IMMIGRANT ALIEN STUDENTS.
Classes will not be canceled due to weather.
