Orlando Ballet School classes begin with the Enrollment Division and progress to the Pre-Professional Division. Each level follows a structured syllabus that recognizes cognitive, emotional and physical development. Students aged three to six are place by age while students aged seven and up are auditioned and placed by knowledge, ability and potential. All students receive bi-annual progress reports and are advanced only when the teaching team believes more advanced work will be beneficial to the student.

Orlando Ballet II

The bridge between student and professional is Orlando Ballet II (OB II). All OB II dancers are selected by artistic director, Robert Hill and school director, Dierdre Miles Burger through an audition process. They train and rehearse with the professional company on a regular basis and dance in both company and school performances. OB II dancers also present new and classical works to underprivileged youth and senior citizens at free and affordable costs. OB II performs for over 50,000 individuals annually in local festivals, schools, nursing homes, and at Orlando’s premium theatres. It is an opportunity for young dancers to expand their resumes while still continuing intensive ballet study.
