Founded in 1960 by Iris Hensley, The Georgia Ballet offers a professional ballet company, a school, and an outstanding Arts in Education outreach program The Georgia Ballet School, founded in 1960 by Iris Hensley, is dedicated to providing outstanding instruction in ballet and related dance styles in a professional, structured, yet nurturing environment. We believe the pursuit of dance is unmatched in its benefits - aesthetic, physical, and mental. We also stress that a vigorous pursuit of good dancing is of great personal value, no matter what the student's ultimate occupation. The Georgia Ballet School faculty is a group of dedicated and enthusiastic dance education professionals who work closely together within a carefully designed curriculum comprised of thirteen grade levels, each with a written syllabus to ensure progress. The Georgia Ballet announced the addition of Fiona Fairrie as School Director for the 2014-2015 season. Classes are held in The Georgia Ballet's spacious 13,000 square foot facility.

The School's resident ballet company, The Georgia Ballet, provides talented, advanced level students with opportunities to apprentice with a professional organization. The company's presence also provides a valuable firsthand education for all students in the ultimate practical application of their weekly lessons.
