one of the most successful and popular recreational ballet programs
in the Greater Toronto Area. Held in the National Ballet School's state-of-the-art
facilities, Adult Ballet reflects the same personal attention, quality
instruction and training theories as are applied in the School’s
well-established full- and part-time training programs. Further information

through the Registrar’s Office.

Jeté.
The expansion and renovation of the School's residence on Maitland
will continue in phases over the next year.

subsidized professional training institution. For most programs, the
School charges tuition fees which cover only a portion of the real cost.
