About Us
ABOUT US
Established in 2019, Ballet Legato hopes to offer a fresh new view of dance to our community through the direction of our Executive Artistic Director. Dance brings people together and bridges generations. We want our performances and appearances to contribute to this togetherness – we see them as a way to give back to society and an expression of the individuality we each bring to the world.
Mission Statement
Ballet Legato is proud to introduce artistic and innovative repertoire from classical to contemporary works while connecting with our community and familiarizing them with the depth and relevance of dance as an art form; presenting accessible performances of the highest quality while enriching the lives of the artists and audiences with a range of significant, ever-evolving dance.
The organization will foster and create professional opportunities for both local and non-local artists. We are all differently unique and each one of us has certain weak and strong points. We offer an inclusive and equitable culture to develop the unique and special characteristics of each dancer. Local ballet students of an advanced, pre-professional level will be offered educational and performance opportunities through our apprenticeship program which will allow them to collaborate and learn directly from experienced professionals, resulting in the cultural advancement of the Northeast Ohio community.
Ballet Legato intends to interact with the youth of our community by creating outreach programs, including community youth classes in conjunction with particular performances, educational presentations and demonstrations and workshop classes for public and private school students.
