About the School of Richmond Ballet Ensembles

The School of Richmond Ballet Ensembles provide a performing outlet for our serious students as well as create a community outreach group representing The School. Each year, auditions are held and interested students from Middle Level I through the Upper Level Programs are grouped into two performing groups. The SRB Ensemble II is comprised of Middle Level students as a training group to prepare for the SRB Ensemble, our elite group of Upper Level Students. These students must be very dedicated to their training and passion for dance as they work four to six days in class each week in addition to their rehearsals.
