Another New Journey

What gifts both this city this ballet company offer one another. As Ballet Memphis continues to stretch its repertoire and pour out new, original works onto national stages, it also brings more prominence and accolades back home. Did we ever believe that Ballet Memphis could shine so brightly on these national stages and receive such favorable reviews? We've proven the answer resoundingly—yes!

In return, Memphis is expanding its prestige, becoming known increasingly as a national spotlight for superior dance.

And Ballet Memphis continues to make physical movement, in all its forms, more accessible and well-loved to even more Memphians. Take, for example, the company's beautiful new Pilates Centre. As the only STOTT-certified teaching and instructor-training center in Memphis, the new location complements our mission of a stronger, healthier Memphis. 

Reaching out throughout our communities also includes educational enrichment opportunities—master classes taught by Ballet Memphis dancers and our school faculty, and school dance programs to give children who might not otherwise ever see a ballet a glimpse into this magical world. 

Finally, as ambassadors for Memphis, we're strengthening our touring schedule and reaching out to areas of the country that continue to be astounded by the talent we have here. The company continues to successfully push forward, and we hope that you'll enjoy the travels alongside us.
