Who We Are
Founded in July, 2016, Chicago Ballet Conservatory (CBC) is an upper level, in-house classical ballet training and performing program of Mohler Dance Academy. CBC provides a structured, multi-leveled pre-professional curriculum designed to maximize the potential of each dancer. We are uniquely committed to the beautiful art form of ballet and are passionate about guiding and shaping the technical and mental approach to the discipline.
Chicago Ballet Conservatory emphasizes both physical mastery as well as artistic expression, equipping dancers with the skills to succeed in a professional environment. Whether used as a foundational training program to maximize proficiency in other genres, or as a platform to become a member of a professional ballet company, the lessons learned at CBC will positively benefit each student.
Leveraging the Vaganova and ABT training methods, our master instructors impart unsurpassed technical execution and performance quality. Students advancing through the curriculum will be challenged and encouraged, delivering the educational elements required to tackle increasingly progressive components such as pointe work, partner work, and advanced variations.
