Ballet San Jose

Ballet San Jose was founded in 1983 as the City Center Ballet of San Jose, and in 1985 began a co-venture relationship with Cleveland Ballet that spanned the two cities for nearly 15 years before its re-establishment in 2000 as an independent resident company in San Jose.  Ballet San Jose presents nearly 30 performances annually at the San Jose Center for Performing Arts.  Ballet San Jose School is the official school of Ballet San Jose, training more than 400 students annually, and in 2012 became the first institution on the west coast certified to offer the complete America Ballet Theatre National Training Curriculum.
