Special Fund - Center for Dance Education
Boston Ballet School ScholarshipsBoston Ballet School was founded fifty years ago by E. Virginia Williams and is dedicated to the highest standards of dance education for children and adults. We believe the confidence, pride of accomplishment, and joy our students learn in the dance studio will have a positive influence on their daily lives. Boston Ballet School annually awards up to $200,000 of general financial aid to deserving students. These scholarships are funded entirely by donations.
Boston Ballet Scholarship Form Wellness Initiative
Boston Ballet School's Wellness Initiative teaches young dancers about the dangers of eating disorders and substance abuse, and helps them develop skills to manage their physical and mental well-being with the demands of their dance training. The Wellness Initiative provides seminars on managing stress, body image, competition, and on combining dance, school and family responsibilities. It helps students identify alternative careers (besides professional ballet) that might be suitable for them.
The Wellness Initiative also arranges and oversees pro bono nutritional counseling for students and provides weekly on-site guidance sessions for upper-level students in the Boston Studio, and monthly guidance sessions for upper-level students in the Newton Studio.
