Overview

Welcome to the 2024-2025 Academy Year! We are thrilled to have you join us and look forward to welcoming you to Cincinnati Ballet’s Margaret and Michael Valentine Center for Dance. Please select the registrant’s level to begin registration. Each Preparatory Division level has several tracks which are equal in merit but feature different schedules.

Preparatory Division Level 1 is for students advancing from the Children’s Division as well as new students ages 8 – 9 based on placement. Eligibility for Preparatory Division Levels 2 and 3 is by placement. New students ages 9 and up interested in joining the Preparatory Division should contact the Academy Administrative Office to set up a placement class. Learn more here.
