ANNOUNCEMENT: The Ballet Academy and Central Ohio Youth Ballet are combining operations! Click here to read more.
Our mission is to provide professional quality performance opportunities to all area dancers and quality performances to central Ohio audiences.
Our dancers come from many different studios and communities throughout central Ohio, ranging in age from 8-18 with adults joining the group for guest appearances and stage productions.
While Central Ohio Youth Ballet production values are high, the artistic staff place dancers in roles across a spectrum of ability and experience levels. Central Ohio Youth Ballet is not about exclusivity, but rather its mission is to nurture dancers at all stages of proficiency, talent and desire. Read more about who we are and what we do.
COYB LEAPS FORWARD
We are happy to share that phase 1 of the restoration work on our new 8500-square-foot building at 64 W. Main St. in downtown Newark is complete! We have moved in and are happily operating in the studio spaces. Our 1900s-era warehouse has been fitted with all-new mechanical systems, state-of-the-art studios, bright lights, dressing rooms, and ample parking!
We will have a theatre with a proscenium stage and an audience capacity of about 100 with the completion of phase 2 of our construction. It definitely is a growth year for our organization.
Thanks to all of you who have made our dreams come true.
We believe that our new facility is a fantastic addition to downtown Newark!
