Get Up and Dance!

Chamberlain Performing Arts

Chamberlain will be offering two main summer workshops in June and July, as well as a Pointe Forward program for 8-12 year old students.

Each summer program has something for everyone! From  intensive workshops for middle and high school students, and open enrollment programs for teens and adults—there is definitely a class that can fit your needs.

This summer is even more special because 2017 marks the 40th anniversary of Chamberlain School of Ballet.

During the past 38 years, Plano–based Chamberlain School of Ballet has earned a reputation as the principal pre–professional ballet school of North Texas by providing outstanding dance training in the classical tradition. Benefiting from rigorous training, development of self–discipline and healthy bodies, self-confidence, outstanding performance opportunities, and an appreciation for the arts, Chamberlain students advance themselves both artistically and personally.

Founder and Owner, Kathy Chamberlain, is an internationally recognized figure in the world of classical ballet and is a former recipient of the prestigious Ford Foundation Scholarship to the School of American Ballet — the official School of the New York City Ballet.
