About Us

photo by Clare Purdy

We are Kenyon College students with a passion for dance.

Our primary goal, first and foremost, is always to make sure that each and every person is in a safe space.

Ballet has historically underrepresented a large number of people and can be part of an unhealthy environment. We aim to change that stereotype. We welcome any and all feedback about how we can improve this environment, at any time.
