PYBA Logo

The Phoenix Youth Ballet Academy (PYBA) was founded in 1999 to share the joy of classical dance with children. We provide a disciplined and nurturing environment in which to study.

Our curriculum is designed to offer professional ballet training for those who wish to pursue ballet as a career, but more importantly, to offer the beauty of classical study to all students and teach the skills that will enrich their daily lives. Our unique teaching methods and philosophy promote teamwork and encourage individual creativity.

The ballet syllabus, which incorporates French and Russian ballet technique, develops flexibility, coordination, increases memory skills and promotes physical fitness. The consistent class structure focuses on respect for others and the art of ballet while balancing practice accomplishments with fun.

Above all we are dedicated to children's emotional and physical well being as they pursue their dreams.
