Chicago Ballet Arts (CBA) was founded in 1986 and was born from a desire to create a school that infused the rigor of a pre-professional dance program with an inclusive, nurturing environment. The original focus of providing access and opportunity to high quality ballet training for all with the desire to learn is still central to this non-profit organization's mission today. CBA served Chicago's north and northwest neighborhoods for over 34 years before moving to Evanston, IL in the fall of 2020. The founding principles of diversity and inclusion remain core values, and the school is proud to continue its dedication to quality and community in its home at 915 Foster St. ** Contact us today to learn about free trial class opportunities. **

Our daughter loves dancing at CBA because of the professional instruction, but also (and equally as much) because of the people: her CBA friends and her wonderful teachers. These are the things that make this particular Chicago ballet studio one of the most special places we have ever been a part of.
