Each year, RWB School’s groundbreaking Concert Hour Ballet performance series sends senior students in the Ballet Academic Program around the city and across the region to share the power of dance with other school-aged children in schools and community spaces. This innovative program was conceived by the Founding Director of the Professional Division, David Moroni, C.M., with the goals of exposing young audiences to the art of dance, particularly those who might not otherwise have the opportunity.

Concert Hour Ballet kicks off next week and runs until December 2nd.

This past weekend Canada's Royal Winnipeg Ballet gathered RD & PD students, staff, crew, Filbert and some friends to celebrate the kick off to the holiday season with Winnipeg's Santa Claus Parade. Many hours went into creating a fun and sparkly Nutcracker themed float! What a fun night! See you at Nutcracker!
