Formerly known as the Anne Hebard School of Ballet
Located in Kingston, New York

Welcome to the Ballet School of Kingston, where tradition, discipline and vision merge in the development of young dancers.

The Ballet School of Kingston has prided itself on the highest quality instruction and training of students from Pre-Ballet to Pre-Professionals for over 40 years.

Routed in the classical training and traditions of the Royal Academy of Dance in England but inspired by the evolution of ballet in the 21st century, the school stands alone in its commitment to discipline, tradition and excellence, while honoring the health and well-being of our developing students as artists of today.
