The mission of
Ballet Ambassadors is to give children and teens in schools, afterschool programs,
and homeless shelters the chance to share the stage with professional dancers in costumed
adaptations of the ballet classics, original ballets, and world dance
productions. We also offer an assembly program called "Dance, Dance Dance!" that features professional dancers performing a sampling of styles from around the world and includes audience participation.
