We are thrilled to announce that the 2026–2027 season will mark the inaugural year of our performing company, Heber Valley Ballet. This nonprofit youth company is being created to provide a higher level of training, more performance experiences, and greater artistic development, while enriching the broader community.

Company members can look forward to:

Additional performance opportunities, including consideration for principal & solo roles in story ballets such as The Nutcracker (which we will present as a full-stage production starting this year) and our spring production.
Rehearsals outside of regular class time that build discipline, consistency and professional work habits.
Opportunities to work with guest choreographers.
Performances at community events and a Repertory show in late winter.
A goal-setting program including regular one-on-one meetings with directors.
Optional ensemble participation at ballet competitions for Senior Company members.
Exposure to a wider range of repertoire, including contemporary ballet.
Mentorship for students considering dance beyond high school, offering insight into collegiate and professional pathways.

We plan to offer both Senior and Junior Company options, based on skill level and each dancer’s availability and commitment. Participation will include weekly rehearsals in addition to regular classes. To be eligible to audition, students must be at least 12 years old and currently training en pointe.

While details are still being considered and finalized, dancers can expect approximately 10 hours of class per week (including pointe and contemporary), along with an additional:

3–4 hours of rehearsal time for the Junior (Ensemble) Company
4–6 hours of rehearsal time for the Senior Company

Please note that production weeks (3x/year) will require additional rehearsal time. Current plans include rehearsals on Tuesday evenings and Friday afternoons/early evenings, with occasional Saturday rehearsals (about once a month– for setting ballets, guest choreographers, and full cast rehearsals).

We are so excited to offer these opportunities to dancers! A parent meeting is scheduled for Saturday, April 25th at 1:00 PM where we will go over more details and answer questions. Auditions will be held on Wednesday, May 27th 3:15-5:00PM.
