Our History

The Ballet School of Stamford was founded in 1998 as a non-profit organization. Since then, we have earned a reputation of nurturing young dancers through a disciplined and focused training program that brings out the best of their natural talent. Our faculty is a dedicated and knowledgeable group of professionals who are passionate about teaching.

Our outreach program, Dance for All, began the first week we opened our doors with a class at St. Lukes LifeWorks and has continued successfully by partnering with other social service organizations to ensure we are reaching young people who can benefit from our programs. We are proud that in the last 23 years, 100% of our graduates have gone on to college including those who dance professionally.

Partnership with Parsons Dance

The Ballet School and Parsons Dance are pleased to announce that they have created a partnership and opened A DANCE SPACE in Stamford Town Center with beautiful studios. This partnership brings new opportunities for our students, enabling us to fulfill our mission to create healthy, well-rounded dancers. Choreographer David Parsons works with students at A Dance Space.

Summer Programs

We offer various summer programs for students ages 3-20 throughout the summer. These programs are designed to allow students opportunities to grow and have fun while working with our faculty, dancers from Parsons Dance, and other acclaimed guest faculty.
