Anderson Young Ballet Theatre is a ballet-centered dance school in Anderson that combines academy training with a pre-professional company track for advancing dancers. Its program emphasizes disciplined technical study, performance development, and choreography as part of a dancer’s education. Advanced students may audition for the pre-professional Anderson Young Ballet Theatre company, offering a more rigorous pathway within the broader training environment. Instruction is shaped by Annie’s background in dance performance and choreography at Anderson University and other institutions, along with master instructor Ed Godby-Schwab’s more than fifty years of experience across ballet, jazz, modern, and ballroom.
