Manhattan Movement & Arts Center in New York City.

The EBSI has become a destination for some of the most talented students in North America and abroad. This four-week session is designed for students who wish to experience concentrated exposure to exceptional classical ballet training in New York City - the mecca of the dance world.

There is great emphasis on our men's program, focusing on the development of the power, stamina, and masculinity associated with strong male technique. The curriculum affords an excellent opportunity to greatly improve technical skill, develop greater self awareness and gain a deeper understanding of individual artistic potential.

Students learn from the highly effective teaching methods of master teacher Edward Ellison and his international faculty. They come away with greater strength, precision, confidence, and knowledge — and ultimately embody the power and poetry of the art that is ballet.
