Description

New Ballet’s Company is a full-time ballet company in the South Bay, offering Company Artist, Studio Company, and Studio Company Apprentice positions. Called “easily the leading ballet organization in the area” by Metro Silicon Valley, New Ballet offers a full season of ballet performances in San Jose, California. Company Artists represent exceptional talent, and perform in our New Ballet productions which have been described by critics and audiences as “inspired” and “entertaining.” Male-identifying dancers with strong classical partnering may still submit audition materials and we will prioritize getting back to you as soon as possible to let you know if any spots are open. The season runs September 2025-May 2026. Rehearsals are 1:30-3:30 M-F and weekend afternoons leading up to performances. Company Artist positions provide paid rehearsals (hourly wage based on experience) and paid performances (performance fee based on number of shows), details available upon request. Studio Company positions are tuition-free, with limited stipends for exceptional candidates. Studio Company Apprentice positions are tuition-based and include a full schedule of training with New Ballet School’s highest level. To be considered for any of these positions, please submit your resume/CV and video links to both classical and contemporary work. Ladies should be en pointe for at least part of their audition links, partnering footage for male candidates is highly suggested. An invitation to an in-studio or zoom audition may be possible in lieu of a video submission for qualified candidates (please submit a CV or detail training and previous professional experience to be considered for this). Application submissions will be accepted for the 2025/2026 Season starting January 8th, 2025. Please submit to: [email protected] IN-PERSON OPEN AUDITIONS for all positions (highly recommended - 80% of our new dancers for 2024 - 2025 were selected from open auditions) January 10th, 2025 - (Friday) at ODC in San Francisco from 6:00-9:00pm (time of audition TBD but will be during this time frame) February 15th, 2025 - (Saturday) at New Ballet from 11:00 - 12:30pm February 22nd, 2025 - (Saturday) at San Benito Dance Academy in Hollister 12:30-2:30pm
