When the Ballet Academy was founded in 1957 by Lia Schubert, it was the first vocational dance school that included not only classical ballet but also modern and jazz dance. The school was founded on the basis of several needs: on the one hand, there was a need for an education for students who started their main dance training late, and on the other hand, there was a great need for an all-round dance education with different forms of dance. The Ballet Academy's Professional Dance Education is a versatile, qualified and internationally characterised education that provides students with the technical and artistic skills required in the musical and entertainment industry or in dance as an independent art form.<\/p>\n
