Youth Education Programs

The Colorado Ballet Auxiliary proudly offers three wonderful education programs that encompass a wide range of ballet and performing arts appreciation and education. The programs are offered for children starting in fourth grade and continue through high school.

Esprit de Corps

Fourth and fifth grade students enjoy the magic of ballet by attending three performances during the season. The students build friendships outside their normal school arena while learning about the ballet through discussions with ballet staff. They have the opportunity to learn about the costumes, make-up and stage sets up close and "hands-on."

Backstage

Backstage is the Auxiliary's program for sixth, seventh and eight grade students. Backstage provides a unique opportunity for kids to connect with Colorado Ballet's professional dancers, have fun with their peers in social activities and participate in behind the scenes programs at Colorado Ballet. Participants attend three ballet performances during the season.

OnStage

OnStage is the Auxiliary's program for high school students and builds on the Esprit de Corps and Backstage programs. Participants engage in ballet community service and outreach. They participate in an in-depth, "hands-on" ballet stage project as well as attend three ballet performances during the season.
