It is amazing what can be accomplished when people come together.
- Over 1,570,000 Aeroplan Miles donated
- 120 students from around the world
- 12 international ballet schools
- Hundreds of smiles
- Many life long partnerships formed between international youth
- And a learning experience that will stay with these young dancers for life
We thank all of you who so generously donated Aeroplan Miles to the NBS pooled account, in support of the Assemblée Internationale 2009. Without your support, the students involved would not have had the opportunity to participate in such an incredible learning experience and exchange of ideas with their international peers.
Donate Aeroplan Miles for our National Audition Tour
With the extraordinary success of this campaign, and through the continued support Aeroplan, we now turn our attention to collecting Aeroplan Miles for The National Audition Tour.
Last year, NBS visited 20 cities and auditioned 1,000 young dancers for our full time Professional Ballet Program.
As a national institution, it is our mission to move the world and connect with people across this country. NBS works to ensure that we can provide an opportunity for as many young dancers as possible across this country to audition. As you might imagine, there are costs involved in flying our ballet masters, musical accompanists, and evaluators into cities and communities across Canada. By donating your Aeroplan Miles you will be making a real difference and helping NBS to save money and supplement the cost of the National Audition Tour.
Throughout the year, NBS invites world-renowned dance professionals to work with our students as special guest teachers. We also invite other experts in the field of ballet, health and nutrition and other aspects of performance to enrich the training for our students. Aeroplan Miles donated to the NBS pooled account may also be used to cover travel costs associated with guest teachers or emergency support for students who need to travel home.
