All OBII dancers are selected by the Orlando Ballet School Director and the Artistic Director through an audition process. They train and rehearse with the professional company on a regular basis and dance in both company and school performances. OBII dancers also present new and classical works to underprivileged youth and senior citizens at free and affordable costs. OBII performs for over 50,000 individuals annually in local festivals, schools, nursing homes, and at Orlando’s premium theatres. It is an opportunity for young dancers to expand their resumes while still continuing intensive ballet study. OBII is the top level of Orlando Ballet School and serves as the pre-professional bridge between the Trainee Program and the professional company. Currently, two-thirds of the professional company are graduates of the OBII program. Participants in the OBII program receive a full tuition scholarship which includes all of their training as well as a scholarship to support other training-related expenses. In addition to a rigorous training schedule, they have numerous performance opportunities in OBS productions as well as with the professional company.
