Dayton Ballet II
Our Second Company, Dayton Ballet II (DBII) is a pre-professional training program that is available to dancers through audition only. It takes dedication and DB II members are required to study a certain number of hours during the school year. We offer many performance opportunities both with the Dayton Ballet's professional company and others throughout the year.
During the 2021-22 School Year, we will be transitioning to required class level color leotards and T-shirts. Please have your dancer's uniform by the Dayton Ballet School Showcase in May 2022. They will be used as part of their costumes.

The Dayton Ballet School Second Company prides itself on the generous amounts of stage time our students get during our professional performances. Actual experience motivates excellence, builds confidence, and provides an essential foundation for professional development and accomplishment.
Play our video to hear more about the experiences of one of our dance students and the impact that DBII had on her as a developing dancer.
The school realizes that most students will not pursue a career in dance. However, the benefits of taking ballet can last a lifetime – helping to make them focused and disciplined in school as well as into their adulthood.
