Art Connects
Ballet Edmonton has introduced a series of community wellness programs using dance and movement. In response to the needs of our community and the research on the ways dance can be used to facilitate healthier bodies and minds, we are proud to make these programs available across Edmonton in various facilities.
Ballet Edmonton offers classes for adults, seniors, children, at-risk youth and those with a variety of disabilities. We believe dance and movement is one way that Art Connects people to each other and to themselves.

For Seniors
As part of Ballet Edmonton’s Art Connects programs, our movement classes for adults and seniors focus on ballet-based activities designed to improve balance, increase range of movement, prevent injury and manage symptoms associated with age-related illnesses including Alzheimer’s and dementia.
For Youth
Ballet Edmonton believes that dance education should be available and accessible to every child or youth in Edmonton. We help realize this in the community through our Art Connects education and outreach initiative.
