The Lublin Ballet Trust

The Lublin Ballet Trust has been conducting artistic and educational activities among children and young people since 1st September 1956. We work under the auspices of the Association of Dance Friends. We aim at the popularisation of dance, with a special regard to artistic dance, as well as at the education of wouldbe art lovers. LBT works like a school, teaching many different kinds of dance, such as classical, characteristic, folk, stage and modern ones, as well as the sense of hearing education and pantomime. All children from the age of 5, regardless of their previous preparation and abilities, may become pupils of LBT. We have there are more than 250 pupils every year. After 9 years of education some pupils chosen from the eldest groups belong to Representative group (about 40 pupils). LBT cooperate with professional ballet and modern dance teachers and choreographers from the best ballet schools in Poland, Belarus, Belgium and Ukraine. Since 1995 we have been collaborating with "Imago Tijl" from Neerpelt (Belgium). Our pupils have become professional dancers in many prestigious ballet groups such as The Poznan Dance Theatre.This year we celebrate our forty-fifth anniversary. Source: www.balet.lublin.pl
