School of Philadelphia Ballet is proud to present our programs at two different locations across Pennsylvania and New Jersey for students age 3+ through adults.
Ages 3-7 | No Experience Required
The Children’s Program introduces young dancers to the joy of movement and the foundations of ballet through music, games, props, and imaginative play. Each class is designed to be a positive and engaging experience, fostering a sense of self-worth and enthusiasm for learning.
Our Children’s Programs have an open enrollment policy—no audition is required. Please note that space is limited and classes are filled on a first-come, first-served basis. The Children’s Program is available at both our Philadelphia and West Berlin/Voorhees locations!
Ages 8+ | Audition Required
In the Student Program, dancers undergo a transformative journey of disciplined training, refined etiquette, and enriched classical ballet vocabulary. Our structured classes emphasize the importance of technique and expression. School of Philadelphia Ballet instructors guide students with a keen focus on developing finer motor skills and enhancing turn-out, imparting not only the “how” but also the “why” behind each technique taught at their level.
An audition is required for dancers who would like to participate in the Student Program. The Student Program is available at both our Philadelphia and West Berlin/Voorhees locations!
Ages 12-21 | Audition Required
The Pre-Professional Program is designed for advanced students who are training at an intensive level and preparing for a career in classical ballet. Dancers in this program are expected to demonstrate a strong work ethic, a high level of technical proficiency, and a deep commitment to their training. Faculty offer individualized mentorship to support each dancer’s progression—whether continuing advanced training, pursuing collegiate dance programs, or entering the professional field.
Each level of the Pre-Professional Program follows a two-year track, with opportunities for early advancement based on readiness and progress. An audition is required for dancers who would like to participate in the Pre-Professional Program. The Pre-Professional Program is available at the Philadelphia location!
