About Goleta School of Ballet

Goleta School of Ballet, located in Goleta, California, has been a cornerstone of classical ballet training since its founding in the fall of 1986. Under the artistic leadership of founder Lisa Abshere, who brings extensive professional performance experience, and Co-Artistic Director Emily Abshere, who began her dance journey at the school, the studio offers a comprehensive dance education for students of all ages. The esteemed faculty includes accomplished artists such as Gina DeAngelo, Leta Biasucci, Petra Conti, and Allyssa Bross, all with impressive professional careers and training from renowned institutions, providing students the unique opportunity to learn from seasoned professionals. Goleta School of Ballet offers a structured curriculum focused on classical ballet technique, progressing from Pre-Ballet for children as young as three years old through Primary A, Primary B, and various leveled ballet classes (Level 1 through Level 6). The program is thoughtfully divided into distinct divisions: Children's, Student, and Pre-Professional, ensuring tailored experiences for every dancer. The Pre-Professional Division provides rigorous training in technique, pointe work, classical repertory, variations, and pas de deux, alongside contemporary styles, preparing aspiring dancers for higher levels of study and performance. The studio emphasizes discipline, artistry, and technical excellence in a nurturing environment, fostering a deep appreciation for the dance form. Students have opportunities for performance throughout the year, including beloved productions like The Nutcracker Tutu Suite and their annual Spring Performance, reinforcing dedication and discipline as students grow as artists and individuals.
