Our Goal: Building a new facility - Dance Alive National Ballet Arts and Culture Center - to provide the space for dance and music instruction as well as a performance space to serve the community.

Now in its 58 year, Dance Alive National Ballet is a professional ballet company with a roster of award-winning dancers from all over the world.  DANB has toured for over 40 years for Florida’s Touring Program, toured 17 states, 41 Florida counties, Costa Rica, Brazil, Russia, Cuba and Bulgaria.

From dancing on a basketball court where lights were hung on hoops to being sponsored in state of the art theatres to performing by invitation for HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco, DANB has been on a mission to bring dance to the people.  Along with annual mainstage performances at the Curtis M. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, DANB has outstanding educational and outreach programs.
