Pacific Northwest Ballet School believes that ballet is for everyone.
That’s why we’ve developed a wide range of classes and programs, designed to be enjoyed by dance lovers ages four through adult. Our three main school divisions (Children’s, Student, and Professional) are meticulously designed to challenge the physical and technical abilities of each student, and we offer year-round additional programming for all ages.
Children’s Division
The Children’s Division classes include Duet classes for ages 2-3 with a parent or caregiver, Tots for age 4, Creative Movement and Children’s Division Boys’ Class for ages 5–6, Pre-Ballet for age 7; No auditions are required. These programs are a prelude to formal ballet instruction and introduce children to music and movement through a structured progression that emphasizes creativity and group interaction.
Professional Division
The School’s Professional Division offers advanced instruction for those students planning a professional dance career. Students invited to the two-year Professional Division program concentrate on perfecting technique and developing artistry through intensive full-day instruction.
Adult Classes
Open Program & PNBConditioning
Pacific Northwest Ballet School’s Open Program classes in Seattle and Bellevue are open to the public (age 13 and older) and include beginning to advanced ballet technique classes. PNB offers private and semi-private Pilates classes taught by our PNBConditioning program instructors.
