Morningside School of Ballet

Our Philosophy

At Morningside School of Ballet, we believe that every student is absolutely unique and irreplaceable. We aim to inspire and challenge individuals to explore artistry from their own personal expression, interpretation, and lived experience. We understand that each student has physical advantages and disadvantages, and there is no such thing as a perfect dancer's body. Therefore, we encourage our students to learn and safeguard their own bodies to develop themselves as dancers.
