Making an Impact Through
Dance Education

Firebird Gene Schiavone.jpg

Now, more than ever, San Pedro City Ballet is thriving.

In 2015, our former student Misty Copeland was promoted to Principal dancer at the prestigious American Ballet Theatre in New York and made headlines as the first African-American female ever to do so. She started her ballet career with us at age 13, and through hard work and perseverance has gone on to be an international ballet superstar. Her story is one of true inspiration and one of which we are proud to be a part.

In December of 2015, Misty participated in an epic San Pedro homecoming celebration, which resulted in raising funds for our DancEd Steps Up Afterschool Program. This program goes beyond school instruction, identifying talented students and providing free intensive instruction and support that will allow them to pursue professional careers in dance.

Participants from our DancEd Steps Up elementary school program have had amazing opportunities to perform with the Dizzy Feet Foundation, dancing alongside talent from “So You Think You Can Dance,” “Dancing with the Stars,” and more.

We are excited to offer our DancEd Steps Up program, which provides free access to dance education and performance opportunities to over 2,800 elementary school students in underserved communities throughout Southern California.

We are reaching out to you, our past and present supporters, for your help to keep San Pedro City Ballet thriving.
