Happy 4th of July from all of us at Central Ohio Youth Ballet! 🎆

We hope you and your family have a fun, safe holiday filled with good food, good company, and maybe even a few fireworks.

A quick note: the studio is closed today, but we'll see our dancers back in class later this week!

❄🐭 Nutcracker auditions are happening soon!

All area dancers ages 8 and up are invited to audition for this beloved Central Ohio tradition, now in its fourth decade. From the first snowflake to the final bow, The Nutcracker is a magical journey filled with music, storytelling, and memories that last a lifetime.

This is a wonderful opportunity for dancers to gain valuable performance experience as part of a full-scale production enjoyed by generations of local families. No prepared material is needed, just come ready to dance.

We're excited to announce that COYB is now certified in Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT) ✨🩰

PBT is a proven conditioning method designed to support ballet training. It helps dancers build strength, improve alignment, develop body awareness, and support proper technique through targeted exercises created specifically for ballet dancers.

This class is a valuable supplement to traditional ballet training and gives dancers tools they can carry back into the studio, rehearsal, and performance. 🌟

Open to all area dancers ages 9+!

Class Details:
📅 Saturdays, starting June 20, 2026 (no class July 4th)
⏰ 10:00am – 10:45am

See if PBT is a good fit for your dancer! Learn more: https://coyb.org/classes/pbt/
