Time is of the essence these days. Between training cross-training, and private coaching, it seems that the hours escape us. And in the middle of the day, you are hit with hunger, not lunch hungry, but snack hungry. While it is easy to grab a bag of chips, or a chocolate bar, and even the healthy protein bar, sometimes that just won’t cut it. For a lot of us, we get the munchies, we crave that wonderful salty- sweet sensation.

Resources can include everything from financial aid to connections to community programs to performing opportunities.

By now, summer intensives have rounded out their invitations to their year round programs. Now, dozens of hopeful ballet dancers are joining the most elite schools around the world. For those who weren’t asked to stay for the year, the stress sets in about what to do next season. You start to wonder, “Are you are ready to year round, if you are good enough, or if you were prepared?” Yup, all these questions are rambling through our heads causing stress. Parents are thinking or starting to doubt choices from last year, and now the new season is upon us. It also doesn’t help YAGP registration just opened and it seems that half of the venues filled up in three days. Yes, the stress of ballet sets in again. What we thought was a summer break now seems to have disappeared and year-round contracts are due again, Nutcracker auditions are around the corner, and you still don’t have a clear plan. Don’t fret. If you are looking to join a school, here are 20 places to train at this year. Each school offers exceptional training, guidance, and is structured towards a professional career in ballet. These schools are NOT affiliated to a company, but offer amazing training.
