About

Mission:  Ballet Virginia  is a regional ballet company with an associated academy. Ballet Virginia provides professional productions/performances and high quality training for classical ballet dancers in the Hampton Roads community. Ballet Virginia will also provide opportunities for professional dancers, lighting, set and costume designers and choreographers while continuing education and outreach programs for Hampton Roads community at large.

Our instructors are dedicated to bringing their students to the highest technical and artistic level possible by freely sharing their talents. We are proud of our professional faculty, whose combined experience of over 100 years includes such talents as professional instruction, staging, choreography and performance skills.  Our faculty strives each day to offer the absolute best ballet training in the Hampton Roads region.

Ballet Virginia, located in the heart of historic Ghent,  is within walking distance from restaurants, drug stores, grocery and other  shopping opportunities. Dressing rooms, bathrooms and a study area complete our 12,000 square foot facility. The spacious lobby with wifi and seating areas is a convenient place to wait while your child is dancing.

Ballet Virginia specializes in a diverse ballet syllabus inspired by the American, Russian, Italian, English and French schools. This solid technical base insures added success in classical ballet technique and pointe, modern, contemporary, partnering, jazz, and character classes also offered at Ballet Virginia.

Ballet Virginia is proud of our unique offerings that expand the range of instruction to our community at large. Classes include adult ballet and tap, mommy and me, tap for kids and character.  Musicality and artistry are developed joyously in our supportive environment. Like-minded students enjoy a camaraderie and environment that will provide wonderful memories and life-long friendships.

Ballet Virginia also offers several performing opportunities including an annual run of “The Nutcracker” and a  spring ballet. These opportunities are in addition to regular classes by audition only. All registered Ballet Virginia dancers have the opportunity to perform with their class in Concert Classique, our student showcase,  usually the second Sunday in June.

If you are considering a dance education simply for the love of movement, or your child dreams of a professional career, Ballet Virginia has designed a program to suit your needs.
