Since its founding in 1965, the Briansky Saratoga Ballet Center (BSBC) has had one goal-- to provide serious students of dance with a professional training program under the supervision of a highly qualified faculty.

Rich Atmosphere
Nestled in the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains, BSBC is located at Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, New York-- one of the country's most attractive and cultural resort areas.

Unlike other programs, BSBC is committed to developing more than just technical abilities. The confidence of each student, often overlooked, is cultivated by channeling their energies into disciplined forms of self-expression.

Additionally, students are guided in preparation for a professional career. BSBC students are involved in full-scale productions of the New York City Ballet whenever student parts are required. Many former students have advanced to professional engagements with companies such as the New York City Ballet, American Ballet Theatre, the Pennsylvania Ballet, and the San Francisco Ballet, as well as various regional and foreign companies.
