Marblehead School of Ballet, Community Contributor

Founded in 1971 by Paula K. Shiff, the Marblehead School of Ballet (MSB) has earned a wide reputation for the excellence of its training and integrity of purpose. Classical ballet forms the core of teaching with particular emphasis on correct alignment and development of strength and agility. The sheer pleasure of dance and music is always central to the classroom experience.

The basic graded program for children includes classes in ballet technique with advanced work in repertoire and pointe. The school also offers a modern dance department, classes for young children in creative movement and classes in improvisation and technique for the older student. A full range of adult classes is offered.

MSB is home to the North Shore Civic Ballet Company (NSCBC), a non-profit, 501(c) 3 dance organization. The NSCB gives concert performances and a variety of educational programs for schools; all are suitable for different age groups and levels of development.
