Guest Genevieve Posted October 27, 2002 Report Share Posted October 27, 2002 I just moved out and started college and I was wondering if you knew of any close ballet schools near Newark Ohio in Licking County. Quote Link to comment
Mel Johnson Posted October 27, 2002 Report Share Posted October 27, 2002 Well, this is just a reading of Yellow Pages, but there's one place that has a name that offers hope - Ballet Academy at 17½ S. Park Place. Try that first, I'd say. (PS. Welcome to Ballet Talk here at Ballet Alert! Online! Quote Link to comment
Hjete Posted October 29, 2002 Report Share Posted October 29, 2002 I was looking into going to college at Denison University in Granville, OH, which is very close to Newark (about 15 mins if I recall right), and I took class at the school to see how I'd like the program. (I'm interested in minoring in dance if I end up there.) The teacher was Robert Cole, and he used to dance with National Ballet of Canada. After class, he was telling me about the program, and he said that any students enrolled in a dance course at Denison can take class for free as much as they want at his ballet school in Newark. They also have some performance opportunities with his youth company, Central Ohio Youth Ballet. I've seen this company perform twice, but most of the repetoire I saw was contemporary...except a pas de deux to Tchaikovsky music which was excellent (but it should have been because Mr. Cole danced in it with a student ;) ) I don't know if the school connected to the company has another name, but if you can't find it, you could contact Denison University's Dance Department. I hope you find a quality place to study! Quote Link to comment
daffodilduds Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 (edited) I know this thread is old, but I was searching for schools in NJ and the threads mentioned here are about schools in Newark, Ohio, not Newark, New Jersey. Edited August 18, 2012 by sammeecat Quote Link to comment
vrsfanatic Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 I have answered your question on the thread you began about schools in Northern NJ. Please use that thread rather than this one. Thank you. No need to answer. Quote Link to comment
dancemaven Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 Oops! Sammeecat, thank you for bringing that mistake in the title to our attention. I have edited the title to now reflect the proper state, i.e., Ohio (not NJ). Quote Link to comment
