Podcasts, Ballet School Insights, Interviews

The Ballet Help Desk was born out of two moms who spent years trying to figure out how to support their dancing kids. The website provides guidance and advice to parents of serious ballet dancers.

Support and Scholarship Information for Professional Dancers

The Encore Fund is a fiscally sponsored nonprofit dedicated to helping professional dancers transition from their current careers as artists into higher education opportunities. We are devoted to advancing resources for dancers as they move away from their dance careers into their next steps.

DATA POINTES

Ballet Statistics for Schools and Companies

Data Pointes is a ballet blog driven by data where publicly-available dancer information is analyzed to develop a clearer picture of American ballet.

Insights into the world of ballet shared with honesty and humour.

Nobody is perfect. Everyone who dances has started from the same place and experienced the same frustrations at one point or another whether they are a student, a professional, or an adult ballerina. They can relate to each other more than they know, and through that, encourage one another. Dancers dance for the joy it brings them. Don’t let perfectionism stop you from experiencing that joy!

Promoting diversity in the arts through scholarships, mentorships, and programs to empower young girls.

The mission of Brown Girls Do Ballet® is to help increase participation of underrepresented populations in ballet programs through organizing and arranging ballet performances, photo exhibitions, and providing resources and scholarships to assist young girls in their ballet development and training.
