School History
Maryland Youth Ballet (MYB) has been performing since 1971. Our repertoire includes a number of full-length ballets, including The Enchanted Clock and our award-winning production of The Nutcracker. MYB also performs many other classics including: Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty, and Paquita and a variety of contemporary works. MYB productions have won critical acclaim from the Washington Post and other local arts critics. MYB is the recipient of the “Outstanding Youth Performance” and the “Outstanding Classical Production” awards from D.C. Metro Dance.
MYB has toured Latin American and performs locally at the Kennedy Center, Wolf Trap, and Montgomery College. Audiences have received MYB with warmth and enthusiasm. In addition, MYB is active in local community service efforts and in lecture/demonstrations in the Washington metropolitan area.
In January 2007, after 30 years in Bethesda, MYB moved to a beautiful custom-designed and built space in Downtown Silver Spring’s Arts and Entertainment District where we have 5 spacious studios, 16' ceilings, immense windows, and all new Harlequin dance floors.
