The Ballet Alliance member companies value rigorous training methods, and innovative choreography, which directly benefit the technical and artistic development of our dancers. Our member Artistic Directors have built a unique and lasting camaraderie that relishes an inspiring support of each other, shared professional development, and networking opportunities.
The members of The Ballet Alliance host an annual 4 day Festival where our dancers take master classes from renowned instructors, participate in dance-related seminars, perform for their peers, and forge new relationships. During the Festival, member dancers are seen by recruiters from world-class ballet schools, professional dance companies, and college & university dance programs. It is common for dancers to be awarded scholarships to summer intensives, early acceptance to higher education dance programs, and receive apprenticeships or professional contracts from Artistic Directors. $100,000 in scholarships were distributed at our 2025 Festival in Spokane, WA.

Step into a world of enchantment and wonder as you enjoy Ballet Yuma’s 31st annual presentation of “The Nutcracker” held at McBride Auditorium in Snider Hall.
Ballet Yuma is thrilled to announce the addition of a sensory-friendly Nutcracker performance for this 2025 season! This performance further expands accessibility by thoughtfully adapting the Nutcracker experience for neurodiverse audience members and their families. With lower music volume, some light left on the audience, buffer seats, and a shush-free environment, this show is designed for anyone with sensory concerns. Audience members are welcome to enter and exit the auditorium as needed, and absolute silence is not a requirement. For our performers, this is just like every other performance except the audience will be visible and audible.
We are so excited to bring the holiday tradition of The Nutcracker to more people than ever!
