The RWB School is internationally recognized for transforming talented young dancers into versatile, world-class artists through its <\/strong>Ballet Academic Program (BAP), Anna McCowan-Johnson Aspirant Program (AMJ) and Teacher Training Program (TTP). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students train daily alongside the Royal Winnipeg Ballet Company, learning from acclaimed faculty while completing a rigorous academic curriculum through <\/strong>St. John Brebeuf (Grades 6\u20139) and the University of Winnipeg Collegiate (Grades 9\u201312). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They live steps away from the studios in the state-of-the-art RWB Student Living Centre, supported by 24\/7 on-site staff, wellness professionals, and counsellors who ensure every student thrives.

\u201cAt the RWB School, we look for potential, not perfection,\u201d says St\u00e9phane L\u00e9onard, Director of the RWB School. <\/strong>\u201cWe seek dancers with the drive, dedication, and passion to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
