Supporting the arts is not optional—it’s essential. Organizations like The Georgia Ballet hold a vital role in keeping our cultural heritage alive, especially through the preservation and performance of classic works that continue to inspire new generations.
Having worked alongside this company for several years, I’ve witnessed their unwavering dedication, artistic excellence, and resilience in the face of change. Their commitment to classical repertoire grounds their identity, but it’s their community focus and transparency that elevate their impact.
What enriches me most is seeing how they make tradition relevant, how they open doors for young artists, and how they create space for reflection, wonder, and connection. Their recent recognition with the 2025 Gold Seal of Transparency from Candid is a reflection of the integrity they bring to every aspect of their mission.
If you believe in the power of culture to shape stronger communities, The Georgia Ballet is worthy of your voice and your support.
The Georgia Ballet provides amazing ballet instruction with caring teachers. They also allow for many performance opportunities for students. Their work with special needs students in their danceability program is inspiring.
I absolutely love The Georgia Ballet! The teachers are incredible. They show such dedication and support to all of the students. They really care about helping us improve and learn. I've learned so much because of their commitment to teaching us not only ballet technique but also discipline and creativity. GAB is a place where I am encouraged to do my best and where I know my teachers believe in me.
The Georgia Ballet and its School have been an incredible journey for my daughter since she started in 2012. Over the years, she has grown through their Recreational, Pre-Professional, Conservatory, Competition, and Student Trainee programs. The opportunities she's had, from being an assistant teacher to participating in DanceAbility classes, have enriched her dance education beyond measure.
One of the most remarkable aspects of The Georgia Ballet is its dedicated and supportive faculty. They not only teach dance but also instill confidence and encourage students to take chances. The continuity and stability in the teaching staff speak volumes about their commitment and passion. It's particularly heartwarming to see a teacher from her early years now leading as the executive director, demonstrating a true dedication to nurturing talent from within.
My daughter has also had the privilege of dancing alongside the professional company, which has been a dream come true for her. The universal approach to dance education at The Georgia Ballet has not only refined her skills but also fostered her love for dance in a nurturing and inspiring environment.
Overall, The Georgia Ballet and its School have exceeded our expectations. It's more than a place to learn dance; it's a supportive community that fosters growth, creativity, and lifelong friendships. We are grateful for the enriching experiences and the valuable lessons we have gained here.
The Georgia Ballet holds a special place in our hearts. My daughter first saw them perform The Nutcracker on a school field trip when she was in elementary school—and she is still dancing today. Their commitment to inspiring young audiences continues, as they still bring high-quality performances to local school children.
As season ticket holders, we’re continually amazed by the professionalism, talent, and artistry displayed in every production. We are incredibly fortunate to have a ballet company of this caliber in our community. The Georgia Ballet is truly a cultural treasure.
This organization has cared and fostered my child’s goals of being a successful dancer. Our entire family have spent time volunteering and have witnessed the community’s joy to have this level of art in their town.
I love that the Georgia Ballet has performed for local schools for so many years. These events bring little ones to experience something magical and open their eyes to the world of Ballet and performing. I love seeing their reactio, interest a d appreciation for the art of Ballet after each show.
Also, allowing students of the Georgia Ballet audition and perform with the Georgia Ballet professional Company members in the Nutcracker, just makes their participation in these performances so much more special. They work so hard! My son has performed twice with the professional company during the Nutcracker season and he absolutely loves it! He also takes the boys Ballet classes the GAB offers. My younger daughters are also enrolled at the Georgia Ballet. They love it!
I have been coming to shows by the Georgia Ballet for many years now. I have a good friend that is a part of the company. I brought my husband to a show about two years ago. Someone who has never been to a professional ballet performance. He was AMAZED! He couldn’t believe how talented everyone was. Being a musical person, he loved how they used classical music to be so expressive through movement. The Georgia Ballet has helped reach another person with the beauty of Ballet!
My daughter's receive a stellar ballet education at this school. They especially enjoy the privilege of dancing in the professional version of the Nutcracker each Christmas.
My husband and I have attended many performances of the Georgia ballet. We have invited friends and family members to join us and now a few of those are regular attendees. It is hard to find classical ballet in regional ballet companies, but the Georgia ballet provides that beautifully. Many of the company dancers volunteer their time and talents outside of the studio to support the ballet in its mission within the community. The Marietta area is very lucky to have such a high-quality cultural organization in the community and more people should know about and attend these wonderful performances.
I never thought I would enjoy the ballet but my wife got us tickets to the Georgia Ballet’s Nutcracker a couple years ago. It was my wife, myself and our teen grandson. I was in awe over the performance. We went to a couple other performances and enjoyed them so much that we became season ticket holders this year. I am so glad she took a chance and got us to go.
