Greer, South Carolina

June 28-July 11, 2011

Auditions for participation in the International Exchange Program are February 5, 2011 from 3:00-4:00.  Audtions are open to ballet students in the Greenville and surrounding areas.

International Ballet Academy signed a five-year agreement with the Kiev Municipal Ukrainian Academy of Dance (KMUAD) in December, 2005 in a ceremony with His Excellency Dr. Sergiy Korsunsky, Charge d’Affaires of the Embassy of the Ukraine. This agreement was renewed in 2010.  The purpose of this agreement is to develop cultural and artistic understanding between the United States and the Ukraine. The American students will get to experience rigorous dance training unlike anything available in South Carolina, perhaps even the United States. Dancers are given the opportunity to perform in professtional theaters as well. They will also be able to spend a significant amount of time with the Ukrainian dancers providing them with a chance to learn about the day-to-day life of their peers in another country. Sightseeing excursions are designed to educate the students on Ukrainian history and culture.  Contact us for more information.
