Ballet Dallas

Contemporary Ballet Dallas is a school and performance company on E. Mockingbird Lane in Dallas, founded in 2005 by Lindsay DiGiuseppe Salih to offer training for both adults and children across a range of techniques. The school occupies five studios with Marley and sprung-wood floors and teaches from beginner through professional level. Youth classes run from 18 months to 18 years, beginning with Parent & Me and Creative Movement, moving into Ballet/Tap combination classes and then levelled work in ballet, tap, jazz, hip hop and contemporary. Adults can take a Basics Beginner Series or drop-in classes, with over 40 adult classes a week offered in studio and online. The school also fields four youth performing companies - ballet, tap, commercial and concert - and runs master classes, summer and school-holiday camps, an end-of-year recital in May or June and a December holiday show featuring Nutcracker excerpts.
