Our Mission

Here at the Studio of Classical Ballet, we strive to provide our students with the highest artistic standard and finest quality education in classical ballet. Through our mission, we believe that we will enrich the cultural life of the community, foster a life-long appreciation  for the arts, and  enhance the creativity and love for dance in our students.

Our story

The Studio of Classical Ballet was established in August of 2000 to serve the artistic need of the Parrish, Ellenton,  Palmetto  and Manatee areas.  Founded by Diane Partington, former principal ballerina with the Ballet Du Nord in France, Les Grands Ballets Canadiens, Sarasota Ballet, and New Jersey Ballet, the studio quickly outgrew its studio space in Parrish and moved  to  a 3000 square-foot   facility in Ellenton, in 2003.  The school  has   two studios with sprung  floors,  marley  and high 14 foot ceilings and a list of international faculty.
Over the course of their training, our students have been accepted  into prestigious summer programs , such as the  The Boston Ballet School, School of American Ballet, The Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis School, Pittsburgh Ballet School, Orlando Ballet School, Miami City Ballet School,  San Francisco Ballet School, The Washington Ballet School, Chautauqua Dance Institution, The Pacific Northwest Ballet School, and  Houston Ballet School. Our former students have gone on to  dance with professional companies here and abroad.
We welcome you and  your child to our new studio in Sarasota at 323 Interstate Blvd. Sarasota, Fl. 34240  and together we will explore and bring out the artist in your child. Call Us: 941-343-9700.
