American Midwest Ballet School (AMB School) is the official school of American Midwest Ballet, the region’s professional dance company. The  AMB School offers classes for children, teens, and adults of all levels through two specially designed divisions:

• • Community Division
    offers a wide selection of dance classes for all ages in a fun and nurturing environment
  • Academy Division
    provides a structured curriculum for aspiring dancers committed to achieving a high level of technical skill

Our knowledgeable and experienced faculty is comprised of many current and former professional dancers. Students enjoy numerous performance opportunities through both divisions of the School and through these exciting programs:
