A World Leader in Dance Education
Canada's National Ballet School – an international leader in ballet training – is dedicated to advancing the art of ballet. Housed in a stunning combination of restored heritage buildings and contemporary architecture, NBS integrates academic education, dance training and residential facilities all on one campus, and is the only school of its kind in North America.
As a vital cultural centre, we prevail as a leader by solidifying four key pillars of dance excellence:
- Attracting the best students
- Securing the finest faculty
- Providing innovative programs
- Sustaining a superb facility & infrastructure
Share in the Vision
Our students have the talent and passion to make dancing their professional aspiration. They are invited to the School because they possess exceptional raw ability, enormous potential and a compulsion to transform their dance into something astoundingly beautiful. They leave with a desire to share that which they perfect with the rest of the world. Most importantly, our students need you – people who share our vision and facilitate the development of this artistry by extending a generous financial gift.
Volunteering is also a great way to become involved! Our volunteers enjoy being in an environment where dance is the primary focus and take pleasure in contributing to NBS’s success. With a variety of opportunities available, there are many rewards for our volunteers – beyond supporting the school with personal time and energy.
