*NEW for 2012-2013 – Auditions required for Levels
1A and up.
The Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis School Children's Division is a ballet program for children ages 4-12 that promotes discipline and creativity while encouraging each child to reach their highest potential. Classes focus on building a solid foundation in ballet technique with an emphasis on proper placement and safe progressions of movement while remaining sensitive to the developmental needs of younger dancers.
Faculty:
Led by Franco De Vita, Principal, and Melissa Allen Bowman, Assistant
Principal, the faculty of the Children’s Division includes
members of ABT’s Artistic Staff, ABT alumni, and graduates
of the ABT/NYU Masters Program in Ballet Pedagogy. Every faculty
member of the JKO School Children’s Division is certified
in all levels of ABT’s National
Training Curriculum . Learn more about our faculty by clicking

Accompanists:
Each class at the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis School is accompanied
by one of our accomplished pianists:
Michael Cherry, Mandy Chiu, Rami Cohen,
John Epperson, Misha Golubitsky,
Allan Greene, Sofiya Leavsie, Dmitry Polischuk, Mihoko Suzuki |
Levels and Schedules:
The School follows a specific graded curriculum, divided by age,
which is outlined in ABT’s National Training Curriculum. Each
level is designed to be sensitive to the developmental needs of
the age group. Class size is limited. The curriculum combines scientific
principles with elements from the classic French, Italian, and Russian
schools of training. Students must attend all classes listed for
their level. Primary classes are open enrollment and no prior experience
is necessary. Classes for Level 1A and above require an audition.
NEW for 2012-2013 - Auditions
All students interested in enrolling in Level 1A and above must
participate in one of the Children's Division auditions. Students
will be placed by the faculty into the appropriate level of the
program.
There are no Children's Division auditions scheduled at this time.
For more information, please contact Mary Kenson Wilson at jkochildren@abt.org.
