WELCOME TO THE 2007-2008 SCHOOL YEAR OF SPCB!

I invite you to walk up the stairs of our historic Grand Avenue Studios and experience Saint Paul City Ballet school where each student is encouraged to exceed their expectations.

\We raise the “barre” in ballet training whatever your age and ability. Whether building the foundation of a professional career or enjoying exercise in its most elegant form, our qualified and accessible staff offer programs for any skill level.

The SPCB faculty maintains a comprehensive curriculum that is developmentally and physically appropriate. We relentlessly pursue the best in classical training in order to develop dancers’ talent and versatility. And SPCB is proud to have live accompaniment of our ballet classes by accomplished local musicians. In this way, we are able to design the class for the students rather than fit the class to pre-recorded music. The dancer learns to dance as a partner with the music.

Experience the finest in dance training. Come and learn with us. Soli Deo Gloria!
