Alabama's Premiere Youth Ballet Company and Ballet Training Program

The Alabama Youth Ballet is a 501c3 non-profit, dedicated to providing local dancers the opportunity to develop their talents in a professional and theatrical setting; working with dancers from around the world and build an appreciation of ballet arts through education, workshops and performances.

Founded in 2004,the organization has gained a distinctive reputation for its innovative programming, artistic excellence, and a commitment to community outreach.

The AYBC presents professionally-styled classical and contemporary ballet performances including Shelby County's only civic ballet performance of The Nutcracker.

The Alabama Youth Ballet relies heavily on the generosity of individuals, corporations, and foundations to carry out its
mission.

All donations through Razoo, Alabama Gives and GoFundMe go directly to the AYBC, the non-profit educational and performing group, for scholarships, program building and outreach.

The Alabama Youth Ballet's mission is to:

  * create and present ballets of excellence that are designed to be stimulating, culturally relevant and appropriate to children and adult audiences;

  * create an innovative approach to ballet training that welcomes diversity, and ensures unanimous participation and achievement by all students;

  * create sustainable, inclusive and engaging outreach programs that make ballet accessible to participants of all racial, cultural and economic backgrounds; and

  * reposition the role of dance in our culture and expand its purpose in the education of youth and enrichment of the community, locally and beyond.
