Osborn Ballet Program

The Osborn School District Ballet Program offers professionally oriented ballet training after school for boys and girls with related studies, activities and fieldtrips. The overarching goal is to make professionally oriented ballet training available to students who do not have access to it. Students have earned the privilege of auditioning with professional dance companies and receiving scholarships for further study. The Ballet Program received the prestigious Arizona School Board Association Golden Bell 1st Place Award for 2009.

Students in the Ballet Program study classical ballet technique, including terminology (in French), history, and an introduction to music as it pertains to training, history and performances. They also receive Nutrition classes in addition to dance study.
