The Joffrey Ballet School offers a year-round training ground for pre-professional artists. Our Trainee Program, open to dancers ages 13–25 provides a comprehensive pathway for those pursuing a future in professional dance.⁠
⁠
With two distinct tracks to choose from—Ballet or Jazz & Contemporary—students receive elite technical instruction while developing the versatility required in today’s evolving dance industry. Unlike many top schools that specialize in a single discipline, the Joffrey Ballet School recognizes the importance of cross-training and prepares dancers to thrive in a variety of professional environments.⁠
⁠
Program pathways include:⁠
⁠
☑️Conservatory Program – for high school students⁠
☑️Certificate Program – for high school graduates⁠
☑️BFA Degree Pathway – earn your Bachelor of Fine Arts from The University of Akron⁠
