Founded by Kevin Jackson and Leanna Del Basso, Perth Youth Ballet offers young dancers across Western Australia the opportunity to come together for extended development with highly skilled specialist ballet teachers.

As a youth ballet company based in Perth, the program brings dancers together to rehearse, create, and perform as part of an annual ballet production. Through this experience, dancers strengthen their technical ability, confidence, and understanding of stage performance while working alongside peers from both rural and metropolitan dance schools across Western Australia.

United by a shared passion for ballet, company members develop not only as dancers, but as artists and collaborators.
