Flexible Classical Training
Open Ballet Program
A flexible training option for students ages 9 and up who want structured classical ballet instruction without the full Training Program commitment. The Open Program offers the same professional-level classes and faculty — with a schedule built around the student's availability.
How It Works
Every new student begins with a level evaluation. Based on your child's background and physical development, our faculty will recommend the right starting point and the classes that best support their goals.
Families then choose a weekly class package. Ballet class is always included because it is the foundation of everything we teach. Complementary classes are recommended by the instructor and selected by the family.

An Essential Part of Our School
Boys Program
Boys are welcome at MG Ballet School from the youngest age. Male dancers follow the same class schedule as their peers within the Training Program — and they are a vital, celebrated part of what we build here.
Our boys program is led by Luis Ledesma, a professional dancer trained at the Escuela Nacional de Arte (ENA) in Havana — the same institution that shaped the careers of Cuba's most celebrated male dancers.
Luis does not teach the Cuban methodology as a technique studied in a manual. He was formed by it, performed in it, and brings that lived experience directly into every class.
