Metropolitan Youth Ballet of Indiana (formerly Ballet Theatre of Carmel Academy)

Metropolitan Youth Ballet of Indiana (formerly Ballet Theatre of Carmel Academy) is the premier pre-professional ballet academy in the metro Indy region, and is dedicated to developing dancers to their fullest potential as unique performing artists and exceptional community members. We believe that through encouragement and guidance, our dedicated instructors can nurture dancers to a higher degree of achievement, self-confidence, and growth. Our academy environment is one of inclusivity and mutual support, and the studio is a place for dancers to learn, connect, and be inspired. We strive to give young dancing artists the tools necessary to succeed at the collegiate and professional levels. All dancers, regardless of their long-term goals, are challenged to achieve their personal best and, above all, to have fun as they follow their passion!

Our highly qualified professional faculty offers training to dancers of all levels, ages 3-18, in ballet technique, pointe, pas de deux, character, contemporary, and jazz. Additional programming includes Boys Ballet, Day Intensive Program, Soloist Initiative, Summer Camps and Summer Intensives.

MYB also plays an important role in enriching the cultural life of Central Indiana as a producer of quality pre-professional ballet performances and events for the community. In addition to its annual Nutcracker and full-length spring ballet, MYB offers outreach programs to libraries, schools, and senior centers, and performs at several annual community festivals.

MYB is a 501C3 non-profit organization located at 6210 Technology Dr., Suite 200, Zionsville IN 46077. For more information about programs, registration, events, or to donate, visit my-ballet.org.
