THE JUNIOR ACES

Artists. Collaborators. Entertainers.

We couldn’t be more thrilled to present to you our 2022 Junior ACES. These talented young dancers are the epitome of maturity, professionalism, and commitment to their craft.

Our JUNIOR ACES program is designed to diversify and elevate a young dancer’s training by providing unique performance and on camera opportunities.

This summer at THE BALLET LAB, we are looking for our next JUNIOR ACES to take with us on tour overseas in summer 2023 ✈️ 🌎 ✨

Join us at THE BALLET LAB from JULY 18-22 for your chance to be the next JUNIOR ACE!

Special thanks to the talented @vborrisondp for the cinematography and @glassbaux for the edit.

Where the light from the source of illumination is only partly cut off.

We are so excited to present to you, the 2020/21 JUNIOR ACES. A group of brilliant, accomplished, mature artists who embody resiliency, adaptability, and a true devotion to their art.

Given the circumstances, we took the opportunity this season to approach to the Junior ACES experience in a new way. Though this year has been filled with a lot of adversity, we are so grateful to have had some time this past fall to create this special piece with the Junior ACES, and to focus the attention of this program on the creative process for film.

Our industry has had to face immense hardship this year, and every dancer has had to suffer the loss of this creative outlet and expression. But the light is not lost- only partially dimmed. And the fire in our hearts still burns for the chance to dance again. We will make it back to the stage soon – stronger and more indebted than ever before.
