Alumni

A Global Community of Artists and Leaders


At NBS, we proudly celebrate YOU: our Alumni who, since 1959, have made significant strides as celebrated ballet dancers, beloved dance teachers, world-renowned choreographers, trailblazing artistic directors, leaders in the arts, social change-makers, doctors, academics, psychologists, filmmakers, lawyers, and so much more.
 
Each year, we invite you to stay involved through events, awards and other opportunities so that you can engage, network, learn and give back.

Your skills, talents and experiences are valuable tools that can help support each other, our staff and our student community, especially as they head off into the professional world or stand at the threshold of career transitions.

 

Whether graduates of the Professional Ballet-Academic Program, the Company Life Program (formerly the Post-Secondary Program) or Teacher Training Program, or staff, Boards of Directors and students who have shared at least one year of your lives with NBS, we’re keen and excited to stay connected and engage with you!
