Happy International Women’s Day!
Today—and all month—we celebrate the women of ballet: dancers, students, choreographers, and teachers who inspire and shape this art form every day.
We are beyond proud to celebrate the 51 incredible SAB students who performed alongside New York City Ballet in the breathtaking production of The Sleeping Beauty at the David H. Koch Theater at Lincoln Center. Bravo to each and every one of them! ✨🩰

Love is in the air — and in our studios!
The students wore beautiful shades of pink, red, and purple on Thursday as we celebrated our annual Valentine’s Day Open House for SAB members.
Each year, this special event gives people the opportunity to observe classes and experience the artistry, discipline, and joy that fill our studios every day.
There’s nothing more meaningful than sharing the love of ballet with the community that supports our students so wholeheartedly.
Happy Valentine’s Day! 💗
We are thrilled to announce the launch of SAB’s One-Week Experience, a new summer intensive program designed specifically for advanced and professional-level dancers ages 18-23.
This immersive week offers a rare opportunity to train within SAB’s environment, providing the high-caliber instruction and rigorous atmosphere necessary for dancers at the threshold of their professional careers.

SAB students are excellent at finding their balance not only in the studio, but in all aspects of their lives. From academics to auditions, rehearsals to performances, we are always so impressed at how they manage to thrive in all areas. Watch our Q&A series with a few of our advanced students to get more details on how they do it: #LinkInBio
