Overview

Ballet at the University of Cincinnati is a professional dance program offering a bachelor of fine arts degree with an emphasis in ballet -- a successful union of academe and the performing arts.

Success

Dancers are artists disciplined in mind and body. They possess a strong, honest work ethic and strive to seek perfection in their art form. They are dedicated to the process of learning and understanding the human body -- physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually -- as the human body is their instrument for artistic expression.

Career

The CCM dance program supports an internship programs for qualified students to perform with professional dance companies in the region as well as throughout the U.S. in their junior and/or senior year. Underclassmen may perform as Seasonal Dancers with neighboring professional and pre-professional dance companies if selected by the company Artistic Directors provided there are no conflicts with CCM dance requirements.

CCM alumni have performed as members of numerous professional companies, including: Royal Danish Ballet, Teatr Wielki-Opera Narodowa, Les Grand Ballets Canadians, Atlanta Ballet, Austin Ballet, Ballet Theatre of Maryland, Cincinnati Ballet, Dayton Ballet, Dayton Contemporary Dance Company I and II, Joffrey Ballet, Joyce Trisler Danscompany, Kentucky Ballet Theater, Louisville Ballet, Martha Graham Dance Company, Nashville Ballet, Ohio Ballet, Quad City Ballet, Tulsa Ballet II and Vienna Opera State Ballet.
