PAST STUDENTS
“It was such a huge inspiration for me attending Yorkshire Ballet Seminars and added so much to my training and knowledge of what it would be like to become a professional ballet dancer. When I look back at all the amazing teachers who taught me I feel so lucky to have had that experience while growing up in Yorkshire and I am so glad the School continues to thrive and inspire a new generation of dancers. ”

I had an amazing week and made some great new friends! The teachers were so inspiring and I learnt lots to take away for the future! I would love to go next year if I get the opportunity!
Parent feedback
My daughter loved her week at YBS and really appreciated the quality and calibre of the teachers. They were all so friendly and encouraging.
Student feedback
YBS was my first summer school where I stayed away from home. I was a little nervous but I ended up having the best time ever. I am not a full time vocational student so I was grateful to be offered a place.
Student feedback
My week at YBS was completely unforgettable and I was given so many incredible opportunities to learn from the industry professionals. I came away with a complete burst in confidence, new repertoire which may come handy in the future and new corrections which will help me in the next year of my training.
