AYBTA accepts new students into our classes and summer program.

Where most companies limit new student participation in performances during their first season, AYBT encourages new dancers to audition and perform in our performances.

The cost of tuition is dependent on the length of instruction and number of classes in which each dancer participates. The breakdown follows:

• 30 min. class per week      $40/every 4 weeks

• 45 min. class per week     $50/every 4 weeks

• 1 hour class per week    $55/every 4 weeks

• 1 1/2 hour class     $65/every 4 weeks

• Individual Classes $25

There is a $35 fee due at registration (or $45 per family).

AYBTA also offers opportunity for fundraising and scholarship.

You can, if you decide to do so. AYBTA also provides monthly payment options.

Our payment schedule is a four week pay schedule, not necessarily due at the end of each month.  You are paying for classes four weeks in advance.

Your first payment will also include the $35.00 Registration Fee or $45.00 for families.

AYBT Academy offers families the opportunity to fund the AYBT scholarship account for individual dancers through donations and fundraising (while raising money for AYBT).

In addition, the AYBT Company is constantly holding fundraisers to support their productions. During many of these fundraisers, a portion of the proceeds earned is applied to your dancer’s tuition/scholarship account.

AYBTA hosts the Big Four Arts Review each spring for student performances. All students participate in the spring recital.

The AYBT Company presents two full-length ballet’s each season, including The Nutcracker and a spring ballet. New students are encouraged to audition and perform for each ballet.

There is a $125 production fee for participation in The Nutcracker and Spring Ballet.

These fees help cover the production of the full-length ballet's and provides a recording of the ballet for each family.

ALL Past productions fees must be paid in full no later than September in order for your dancer to participate in AYBT performances.
