“Newcastle Ballet Theatre reflects the people that Principals Rider and Kristy are: nurturing and professional. Having a successful professional career themselves, they not only understand the physical technique needed for a professional career but also the mental strength that is equally important. 
I wouldn’t be the dancer or person I am today, if it hadn’t been for their wealth of knowledge and continual guidance.”

PART TIME PROGRAM
A 2½ days per week intensive training program, The Part Time Program is open to Intermediate and Advanced dancers regardless of academic year, school, or studio affiliation. 
This program operates in conjunction with local schools; If your academic school requires more information regarding the structure of the Part Time  Program, we will be happy to speak with them.
Each Monday, Part Time Program dancers will have a half day of classes. Part Time Program dancers also completely integrate into Full Time Program classes one day during the week, as well as Saturdays. This integration is a wonderful opportunity for Part Time Program Dancers to experience and understand the demands of joining a Full Time Program.
