Scholarship Auditions 2024
For our 2025 Summer Seminars
We are proud to be able to offer a large number of Scholarships for students to attend our Summer Residential with all or part of the fees covered.
The audition will consist of a 1 hour and 15 minute ballet class in your correct age group (no pointe work for any students) led by an experienced teacher in front of a panel led by the Director.
We will be holding 5 days of auditions across the country. Places for these auditions will be strictly limited and offered on a first booked basis. There is a fee of £12.50 per student to attend and students can only book to attend one audition date.
BOOKINGS NOW OPEN for our 2024 Scholarship Auditions

Bursary applications are different from Scholarships. Applications for Bursarys will open at another date.

These wonderful scholarships that YBS is able to offer, and the impact they have on students attending the Summer School, would not be possible without the incredible generosity of those who support them. We thank you all greatly.
The award of scholarships is by audition. Scholarships cover all or part of the fees for attending the Summer School. Scholarships do not include any travel costs.
