In the Studio

Boston Ballet School (BBS) is the largest ballet school in North America providing unparalleled dance education and ballet training to over 5,000 students annually.  Its mission is to deliver a complete dance education while inspiring, nurturing, and sustaining a life-long love of dance in every student. In our pre-professional program, under the vision of Artistic Director Mikko Nissinen and BBS Director Margaret Tracy, we incorporate classical ballet, neo-classical ballet, and an exposure to contemporary dance to prepare students for today’s professional world.

Through partnership with BBS your company will access in-studio events and exclusive rehearsal viewings.
