Our Goal
"In ballet, you always know what the next step is."
Saint Augustine Ballet offers a variety of classes that are structured to improve and advance a student's technical, artistic, and performance skills with a talented roster of certified and excellent teachers.
Our goal is to educate our dancers and teach them the skills needed for a healthy and successful life; integrity, respect, dedication, confidence, and etiquette. All levels of dancers are welcome, whether or not they intend to pursue a career in dance.
Our Mission
Saint Augustine Ballet is a 501(c)3, a non-profit organization that believes dance is an essential part of any thriving community. Our mission is to involve community members of all ages in meaningful dance experiences, whether as a participating dancer or audience member. We produce an international dance festival, two classical ballets, and a student gala each year and our cast and crew have grown to include over 100 participants under the direction of Luis Abella. Our productions have played before sold-out audiences and are seen by over 3,000 people annually.
