Perform with the Pros

SBSA students have the unique and exciting opportunity to perform with Ballet San Antonio’s professional company in full-scale productions at the Tobin Center for the Performing Arts — three times per year.

Students also showcase their growth in our Annual Spring Showcase, and may participate in other community performances with the professional company throughout the year.

This kind of access to professional productions is rare — and unforgettable for young dancers.

Our Faculty

Most of our faculty is made up of Ballet San Antonio’s professional company dancers — seasoned performers with a passion for teaching. In every class, students learn from the same artists they see on stage, gaining personal attention, expert training, and real-world inspiration.

Whether your child is dancing for joy or aiming for a professional path, they'll be mentored by teachers who are not only experts in their craft, but deeply committed to nurturing confidence, discipline, and love of movement in every student.

FOR AGES 7-18

For dancers ages 7–18 who enjoy the beauty and discipline of ballet without the goal of becoming a professional dancer, SBSA offers a Recreational track within Levels 1–7. Recreational students train alongside their peers in the same level but attend fewer classes per week. This path allows students to experience high-quality training and the joy of ballet in a way that complements their individual goals and broader interests.
