All the signs of summer are here at Atlanta Ballet. Our company dancers are enjoying a much-needed break, and the curtains have closed on the 24|25 season. Despite that, Atlanta Ballet is far from quiet, least of all, the Atlanta Ballet Centre for Dance Education (the Centre). Summer classes for all ages are now in full swing!

Available for anyone aged two to ninety-nine, there’s something to keep the whole family occupied or to just reach your personal fitness goals in a fun and supportive environment.

Beat the Georgia heat and stay active with Atlanta Ballet. Don’t worry about burning out, our air-conditioned dance studios offer a cool, fun escape so you can dance the summer away while breaking a sweat.

Adult Dance Intensive has just wrapped!

A huge thank you to our dedicated Atlanta Ballet dance community that turned out and made the inaugural Adult Dance Intensive such a hit!

We’re still buzzing from the incredible energy as adult dancers from ages 20-71 from all walks of life joined us for a full week of Ballet, Contemporary, Tap, and Jazz, culminating in a spectacular showcase on the final day. If you weren't able to make it this year, we're excited to announce that the Adult Dance Intensive will be returning next year!

Summer Dance Programs

There’s something for everyone this summer and every summer at the Centre.

The Atlanta Ballet Centre for Dance Education’s Summer Dance Programs offer a variety of classes for students from beginner and intermediate levels.

For aspiring dancers aged two to six, our Creative Movement program is an eight-week journey of discovery and engaging activities. Our youngest students not only learn to dance but also develop essential body awareness, rhythm, flexibility, coordination, and confidence – all while having fun!

In Dance for Joy, students step into a week-long program built around a captivating theme. This year, we're whisking our students away to the enchanting Whimsical Woodlands or the royal kingdom of The Swan Princess.

The Young Dancer Summer Experience is an immersive program for ages eight to ten focused on building a strong and essential foundation in classical ballet technique and vocabulary. Students dive deep into the artistry and discipline of ballet, along with other disciplines such as modern, tap, jazz, and hip hop setting them up for success in their dance journey.

And for those ready to elevate their training, our Summer Junior Intensive for ages 10 to 17 is full steam ahead!

This full-day program is meticulously crafted for our intermediate dancers and focuses on building the strength and technique essential for success at the higher levels of training.
