New school, new goals. 🩰

Meet Isabella, a new PTD dancer who joined Texas Ballet Theater School this year! Her advice to anyone thinking about auditioning? "This is an amazing, diverse program with teachers who care about helping you grow and reach your goals. Definitely audition!"

Her favorite TBT moment so far? Performing in the 2026 Summer Intensive Showcase — her first time back onstage in over a year. And let’s just say… she had an absolute blast. 💃✨

Now she’s setting her sights on her next goal: auditioning for STC this year.

When she’s not working toward that next step, you can find Isabella obsessing over Onegin — with Tatiana’s dream scene pas de deux holding a special place in her ballet-loving heart. 🖤

Welcome to TBT, Isabella! We can’t wait to see where you go from here. 💫

Meet Madison, a member of our Studio Training Company ✨

Madison came to us from Medford, Oregon, and is now in her second season with Texas Ballet Theater School. We asked her what advice she’d give someone planning to audition for STC, and here’s what she said:

“Have fun and be yourself!”

Thank you, Madison! We can’t wait to see what this season brings for you 🩰

Great ballet technique is about more than what happens at the barre. 🩰

At TBTS our students train in Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT), a body-conditioning and strengthening program created specifically for dancers. PBT uses ballet-based exercises, often with an exercise ball, to help students feel exactly which muscles power each movement. With practice, that awareness turns into muscle memory that they bring into every performance.

PBT classes help our students to build a stronger core, better balance, cleaner alignment, and more flexibility, while developing healthy habits that support injury prevention. 💪

Every TBTS teacher who leads PBT is certified in the program, so our dancers learn it exactly as it was designed. 🤍
