    Artistic Directors, Gregory Aaron and Nicolas Pacaña, invite you to join them as they celebrate AFB's 20th season.  The ballet program was established to provide the highest level of training to all students who strive for both physical development and personal growth through the discipline and joy of dance.
    AFB's goal is to educate students through knowledge and experience so they may realize their potential not only as dancers but also as human beings.  The faculty and staff at Atlanta Festival Ballet School are dedicated to helping students develop technical skills, respect for themselves and others, along with a fundemental appreciation for the art of dance.
    Students from AFB school have been accepted to ballet programs with the American Ballet Theatre, Hartford Ballet, San Fransico Ballet, Houston Ballet, Sacramento Ballet, and Joffrey Ballet.  AFB students have been recipients of scholarships to Boston Ballet, The School of American Ballet, The Rock School, Southern Methodist University, and many other prestigious classical ballet training schools and companies.

Philosophy
We believe the study of dance gives
 
  • Students a greater sense of the body and how to utilize it moving through space.
  • The discipline required to diligently attend classes of intense work and concentrated practice.
  • The student self-confidence needed in all walks of life.
  • Grace, elegance and poise to those who commit to the study of this art form.
  • Exposure to various musical forms - classical, contemporary, and jazz.
  • The student the joy of participating in a very special art form.
.
The spirit of the dancer dwells within each of us.  Through proper training, each student has the opportunity to develop this spirit, regardless of its magnitude.
