Congratulations to SAB faculty member Gonzalo Garcia on his new appointment as Artistic Director at Miami City Ballet! They are so lucky to have Mr. Garcia at the artistic helm. While we’re sad that we won’t have Mr. Garcia teaching regular classes at SAB, we couldn’t be happier for him and this exciting new venture. Congratulations!

Join us in congratulating the SAB Capstone Class of 2025! With their SAB training complete, we are thrilled to acknowledge this talented group of young people as they take their next steps into the world. Many have accepted positions with ballet companies across the globe, while others are pursuing college degrees at several prestigious universities. We are certain that wherever the next chapter in life leads them, they are going to thrive, bringing with them the same level of dedication, artistry, and joy that they demonstrated in their SAB classes each day.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We’re going to miss them but we look forward to welcoming them back to SAB as part of the School’s vast alumni community. We are so proud of all they’ve accomplished and wish them well in all their future endeavors.

As we wrap up our classes today, we wish all our students and their families a fabulous summer. We’ll miss you!
