The School of Nevada Ballet Theatre (SNBT) is the premier ballet and dance training center of Southern Nevada. Founded in 1979, the School is guided by a commitment to excellence, offering training in many forms of dance with classes for students 18 months of age through adult. The School is housed in a 36,000 square foot state-of-the-art facility, offering the highest standard of artistic education taught by distinguished and world-renowned instructors.
SNBT follows a structured sequence of training stages designed to increase technical skills, stamina and discipline in accordance with age and individual physical development. The fundamentals of dance training include: technique, coordination, muscle development, strength, body awareness, flexibility, musicality, and artistic expression. Inherent to dance training, corrections are essential; therefore, students are guided verbally and physically by instructors to ensure proper body alignment and body placement.
Dance education is an ongoing process that continues throughout a dancer’s career; students whose lives lead to non-dance careers garner invaluable skills of discipline, dedication, poise and a life-long appreciation for the arts.
